New Quinnipiac poll finds Biden & Trump neck and neck in TEXAS - Trump ahead by only 1 point
https://poll.qu.edu/texas/release-detail?ReleaseID=3662President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden are locked in a very tight race in Texas, with Trump receiving 44 percent of the vote and Biden receiving 43 percent in a general election matchup, according to a Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pea-ack) University poll released today. Democrats go for Biden 90 - 5 percent, independents do the same 45 - 36 percent, and Republicans go for Trump 87 - 6 percent.
Voters say 54 - 40 percent that Trump would do a better job handling the economy, but say 49 - 43 percent that Biden would do a better job handling health care. Voters are split on who would do a better job handling the response to the coronavirus, as 47 percent say Biden and 45 percent say Trump.

About six in ten voters (59%) in Texas say voters in the state should be allowed to vote by mail due to the coronavirus pandemic, while four in ten (40%) say they should not. There are wide partisan gaps, as Democrats 91 - 9 percent and independents 61 - 39 percent say "yes" to voting by mail, while Republicans 68 - 31 percent say "no" to voting by mail.

Looking ahead to the presidential election in November, 60 percent say they would feel comfortable voting in person, while 38 percent say they would feel uncomfortable. Republicans 84 - 14 percent and independents 60 - 38 percent say they would feel comfortable. Democrats 67 - 31 percent say they would feel uncomfortable.
