17. The problem with polls ...

This is the problem with polls and the reason political parties try to keep them skewed in their favor.

If the race is seen as unwinnable, which Texas appears to be for Dems all the way from President on down due to redistricting, the Dems don't bother to turn out. We've had the same problem in Oklahoma for years. We think it doesn't matter, so we don't bother to put the work into it.

No offense intended. Especially with the price of gas, I completely understand where he's coming from.
