Background

For the first time in decades, Texas is considered a battleground or swing state.

The last time a Democrat won Texas in a presidential election was Jimmy Carter 1976. The last time a Democrat won statewide was 1992.

But the state has been trending towards Democratic candidates for the past two election cycles.

Mitt Romney won Texas by nearly 16 percentage points in 2012, but that number dropped to nine percentage points in 2016.

According to Five Thirty Eight’s national polling average, Trump and Democratic candidate Joe Biden are neck and neck in Texas.

Texas has 38 winner-take-all electoral votes, the second-most in the country to California.

Political analysts say if Trump loses Texas, it will be extremely difficult for him to win reelection.
