WHAT THEY’RE SAYING: Allred Closing Gap as Cruz Spews “Grievance, Anger, and Disinformation”
AUSTIN, Texas – With less than 70 days to go until Election Day, Colin Allred is rapidly closing the gap on Ted Cruz.
Here’s what they’re saying:
“Cruz holds a mere two-point advantage… The loathed incumbent senator is in trouble.” (The Guardian)
Allred is “within striking distance of Cruz” (Texas Tribune), “within the margin of error” (MSNBC), as Cruz is “having a harder time holding his ground” (KFOX El Paso)
…in part because recent polling shows “Allred outperforming Harris” (Newsweek) and Cruz “running weaker than Trump” (The Hill).
As the rave reviews for Cruz’s self-serving campaign swing pour in:
Deborah from Tyler (Dallas Morning News): “We enjoyed meeting [Colin Allred] in Tyler… without the grievance, anger and disinformation that Cruz posited the day before”
Texas Tribune: Cruz “tells the crowd to pull out their phones and text ‘Verdict’ to a number that will reply with a link to subscribe”
The Texan: “The pitch to the Georgetown crowd, and probably every other crowd thereafter, included a prompt to subscribe to Cruz’s podcast ‘Verdict’ — the candidate’s personal megaphone”
