(Politics USA) With momentum surging behind Texas Democratic Senate candidate Beto O’Rourke in his race against Sen. Ted Cruz, Republicans in the state are likely in a panic as the November midterms inch closer.
According to Markos Moulitsas, the founder of Daily Kos and co-founder of Vox Media, O’Rourke is in a virtual tie with Cruz – 48 percent to 46 percent.
Moulitsas points to a surge in momentum for the Democrat over the past three weeks.
This is real. Our @civiqs data has shown real pro-Beto movement in the last three weeks, now trails Ted Cruz by only 2, 48-46. https://t.co/ayvn5eo5UH
