Related: About this forumTrump's reelection support is 50-50 in Texas, Biden and O'Rourke lead the Democrats, UT/TT Poll says
By Ross Ramsey, Texas TribuneHalf of the registered voters in Texas would vote to reelect President Donald Trump, but half of them would not, according to the latest University of Texas/Texas Tribune Poll.
Few of those voters were wishy-washy about it: 39% said they would definitely vote to reelect Trump; 43% said they would definitely not vote for him. The remaining 18% said they would probably (11%) or probably not (7%) vote to give Trump a second term.

That 50-50 number encapsulates how divisive Trump is, said James Henson, who runs the Texas Politics Project at the University of Texas at Austin and co-directs the poll. But, he added, the number is not necessarily a useful prediction for an election thats 16 months away.
Among Republicans, 73% would definitely vote for Trump; among Democrats, 85% were definitely not voting for another term.
