Brian Allen(@allenanalysis):NEW: Texas is suddenly looking a lot less red. A new Texas Pulse/Texas A&M poll has James Talarico actually leading Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate race, while Gina Hinojosa is within a single point of Gov. Greg Abbott. Senate: Talarico 47% — Paxton 43% Governor: Abbott 46% — Hinojosa 45% Here’s the bigger story: Texas hasn’t elected a Democrat statewide in decades. One close race could be noise. Two major statewide races this competitive at the same time is much harder to ignore. Texas may actually be in play.
