Is Beto gaining on Abbott? Poll shows Texas voter thoughts on abortion, border, guns

With the race for Texas governor just two months away, Republican incumbent Greg Abbott continues to have an edge over Democratic challenger Beto O’Rourke, according to a new poll.

Election Day for the high-profile race and others up and down the ballot is Nov. 8. As election season enters its final stretch, a poll by The Texas Politics Project released Wednesday found that immigration and border security ranked as the issue most important to voters, followed by the economy, abortion and gun violence.

The poll includes 1,200 Texans who said they are registered voters and were contacted in late August and early September.
