Despite conservative news ecosystems, little support among registered Texans for Trump policies and support for statewide GOP officeholders has dropped
Polls are like crack cocaine for
political junkies as we seek to divine every shift and
pop in public mood and perception. Polling is
obviously increasingly difficult, but the Texas Politics Project
at the University of Texas has published
consistently for 15 years and they continue to be largely successful in
capturing the public mood.
Having said that, the poll just released
is an eye opener on multiple levels and if the trends they have captured stay
in place through the next year, this upcoming midterm election suggests some
serious changes are possible.
One of the best things about this poll is
that they ask many of the same questions year after year and provide not only
the answer to this year’s question but to every previous year so that you can
watch the ebb and flow of popular sentiment on a number of
issues.
Before getting into some of the results
of the poll, let’s note how quickly and dramatically the public’s news
consumption has changed.

The $20 billion “generational investment” has seen some county GOPs come out against it as well as conservative slates in Houston; some private polling apparently suggests it enjoys big support in major urban areas but may be tanking in rural Texas
Back in
January, Sen. Charles Perry, R-Lubbock, tried to make clear that this
year would be the last time lawmakers would meet in a regular session with
enough time to get ahead of significant challenges related to water
infrastructure before it’s too late to reach a breaking point given our rapid population
growth and lack of a reliable stream of funding for those critical projects.
That was
after Perry made it a point to travel around Texas to gauge support for overhauling
the way the state pays for its unquenched thirst while the population explodes
and data centers chug water like it’s going out of style. Chair Perry then rolled
out a $5 billion plan. That was just the beginning.
As the
session rolled on, Republicans and Democrats eventually got on board with what’s
become Proposition 4, a $20 billion plan authored by Texas
House Natural Resources Committee Chairman Cody Harris, R-Palestine,
and sponsored by Sen. Perry aimed at setting aside up to $1 billion annually
collected from the state’s number one revenue stream: Sales taxes.
Now that
it’s on the ballot in a low turnout election, some Republican leaders are
privately concerned it may not pass as conservative opposition grows in some of
the parts of the state that need some of this help the most.
