Now that we know who is in the governor’s race, the picture is starting to become clearer.
Governor Abbott is staring to distance himself from Beto O’Rourke.
The latest Dallas Morning News poll has Abbott leading 46-39 percent.
Getting Some Distance

The tell-tale sign that this is becoming a formality is those that are locked in on their vote.
Of those now supporting Abbott, 71 percent are locked in, whereas Beto only has 46 percent of his vote locked in.

This state will stay red, and Beto will be sent packing for the third straight time in a general election.
