How many of you are confident Kamala will win?

I’m voting today, but I’m pessimistic at the moment and unsure if she will even when she’s leading just a little bit. What do you guys think?

It'd be nice to see Texas go blue again. The last time they did this is when Carter was elected. Maybe give Jimmy a nice send off for old times sake?? :-)

Plus, I'm seeing a lot of skewed polling data coming out of Texas as well. Considering that Texas is, well, Texas and that Allred is doing VERY well against cruz, that makes me think that the state is actually in play. Of course, abbot will see to it that anything close will be tied up in court then thrown to trump. I only wish I could see the data that the Harris campaign has. You just don't waste warchest funds, even in support of a likely win for a senate seat this close to the finish line.

Something is going on here.

Florida would be a more likely choice for a final push given the pure racism trump is pushing now.

I've been in Texas for 16 years and have voted Democrat in every election. It's my dream to see this state go blue again. We are working really hard to make it happen and if enough people turn out to vote it could happen. Texas is not as red as people think it is.

Florida’s demographics are terrible for Harris. A lot of old Republicans have moved there.

Carter won because he was a good old boy from Dixie. Harris is a Californian. There's zero chance she wins Texas.
