The Hill ^ | September 18, 2018 | Brett Samuels

Ted Cruz is struggling to win over black voters according to a new poll, that despite that weakness shows the Republican senator with a healthy nine-point lead over Democrat Beto O'Rourke.

Cruz is getting support from just three percent of likely black voters, but is winning 45 percent of likely Hispanic voters, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday.

If he gets 45% of the Latino vote, I think he wins by at least 15 pts

I’m pretty sure minority voters have no built-in allegiance to Beto either. Hispanic Cuban or Irishman; tough to pick.

With Hispanic unemployment down to record lows, it would seem to me that Hispanics would want to vote for a guy that would most closely support Trump policy. Beto would work against the progress Trump has made.

Beto needs to go back to Irish School.
Cruz could do with some remedial Cool School..

Democrats sure do love "men" who wear dresses. Why is that? No, don't tell me. I actually don't want to know.

Beto is Obama's kind of cross-dressing guy-gal. Is this transvestite, transgender or just tranny in drag?

PRETENDER Robert Francis O'Rourke is a fourth-generation Irish American, born at Hotel Dieu Hospital in El Paso, the son of Melissa Martha (Williams) and El Paso County Judge Pat Francis O'Rourke.
His father was a political associate of former Texas Governor Mark White.

Hispanic voters may not like the PRETENDER'S attempt at hiding his Irish American heritage.
They may not be as stupid or ignorant as the so-call Black-Americans. But how many DemocRATS actually take the time to look for "Original Sources" ?
They just lap up whatever lies their DemocRAT Politicians spew at them.

I may be 1 of 9 probable voters that tuned in for the debate Friday night, Cruz took Beto apart, Beto was rattled and lost his cool guy flash.

How do they say it? Pendejo? Baboso?

I think the Gaelic word is Ommadawn

Where the hell is Jimmy Simms when I need a translator?

Obama was a mulatto that was raised as a privileged white boy who identified as a black man but he and his commie buddies got elected twice.

Never underestimate the stupidity of the people.

I agree !

What I find really interesting is Obama II's choosing to copy his father's name (Barack Hussein Obama II), as well as his adopted father's name (a.k.a. Barry Soetoro), in order to add CONFUSION to anyone trying to do research on his background.

Ted will win hugely, despite his lack of social skills, because he gets **** done, and fights for us ALL.
