Episode 5768: Live From Ohio; New Polling Out Of Texas; The Trans Fight In Colorado
Multiple polls on the Texas race were published before and around 2026-10-28, including UH Hobby School (Oct 18), Emerson/Nexstar (Oct 22), Cook Political Report (Oct 21), TPOR (Oct 23), and Texas Southern University (Oct 29), so new polling data on Texas had been released as of the claim date.
This claim is in the show notes, the publisher's own words. It counts against the post, once.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.
What we found
Supports. The Emerson College/Nexstar poll released Oct. 22 and the Cook Political Report poll released Oct. 21 both covered the Texas Senate race, showing new polling released before the claim date.[1]
Supports. The University of Houston Hobby School Texas Votes 2026 survey was released Oct. 18, and the TPOR poll was released Oct. 23, both before the claim date.[2][3]
Supports. Texas Southern University's poll covering Oct. 21-25 was released Oct. 29, further confirming ongoing new polling releases around the claim date.[4]
Context. The claim's wording is generic; the passage's headline 'New Polling Out Of Texas' matches it, so no departure from the passage is found.
