Handicapper Shifts Texas Senate Race Towards Allred
The Hill reports:
The Cook Political Report on Tuesday shifted Texas’s Senate race from “likely Republican” to “lean Republican,” signaling momentum for Rep. Colin Allred’s (D) challenge against incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz (R) in the red state.
Jessica Taylor, the forecaster’s Senate and gubernatorial editor, said Allred’s fundraising and ad spending, coupled with Cruz being on defense on abortion and a trip the senator took to Cancun during a severe winter storm in 2021, have helped Democrats in the state.
The latest The Hill/Decision Desk HQ average shows Cruz leading Allred by just less than 3 points.

The most recent poll shows Allred +1.
