The Lone Star State has voted Republican in every presidential election since 1980.
Former President Donald Trump looks set to retain Texas in the 2024 election, according to polls, despite past suggestions the historically red state could be in play for Kamala Harris in November.An Emerson College Polling/The Hill/Nexstar Media poll released Thursday of 950 likely Texas voters showed Trump with a 5-point lead over the vice president in the state. The poll was conducted between September 22-24, and the results have a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.
'If at a minimum, we can get Trump to play defense here, because of this change in dynamic, it's going to open up other possibilities in other states. And someday sooner than later, and maybe it's 2024, we win Texas.'However, even at the time, Mark Jones, professor of political science and fellow in political science at Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy in Texas, had downplayed the suggestion that Harris could flip Texas in November.
