The Burnt Orange Report has the results of the newest Rasmussen Poll on the Texas governor's race, and it does tend to confuse the issue of just where the candidates stand right now. This poll puts Grandma in second place and drops Bell down to fourth. The Zogby Poll, released a couple of days ago, put Bell in second place and dropped Grandma to fourth. The two polls pretty much agree on the figures for Kinky and Perry. Here are both polls:
Rasmussen Poll
Perry....................40%
Grandma....................20%
Kinky....................19%
Bell....................13%
Zogby Poll
Perry....................38.3%
Bell....................20.8%
Kinky....................20.7%
Grandma....................11.0%
Once again, Perry's numbers are way too high. If they don't start coming down pretty soon, this race is over. It's time for Kinky, Bell, and Grandma [and their supporters] to stop attacking each other, and concentrate on getting Perry's numbers down. After all, there are no awards given for second place in this race.
I am hoping the Trans-Texas Corridor boondoggle will put a dent in Perry's support [nothing else seems to]. All three of his opponents need to hammer on this and see if it can get some traction, since all three have come out against the TTC. Opposition to the TTC is growing. We must make sure this translates into opposition to Perry.
I think for better or worse, all four of them are in it until the end.
