Texas Senator Ted Cruz seems to be on the way to retain his seat in the November elections, as the latest polls show him with a relevant lead over his contender, Rep. Collin Allred. However, it is far from a done deal.

FiveThirtyEight's survey aggregator shows that, in the latest study, published in mid-July, the incumbent has an eight-point lead over Allred. The previous poll, from June 30, has a wider, 10-point lead among the 589 likely voters who answered the survey.
