WASHINGTON – Texas voters are split over whether President Donald Trump should be impeached, though only 43% of voters in the Lone Star State approve of the president’s overall job performance.

That divided snapshot comes from a new survey released on Monday by the University of Texas at Tyler.

With House impeachment hearings now underway, nearly 47% of registered voters in Texas do not believe that Trump should be impeached over allegations that he abused his office to pressure Ukraine to investigate one of his political rivals, former Vice President Joe Biden.

But nearly 45% of Texas voters do think Trump should be impeached.

The results are split mostly along partisan lines, with nearly 84% of Democrats supporting impeachment and more than 81% of Republicans opposing it. They also come as more Texas voters than not disapprove of Trump’s performance in the White House, per the survey.

The jumbled picture could loom over the 2020 presidential race, particularly as Democrats insist that Texas — and its 38 electoral votes — could be in play for the first time in decades.

“There is still much work left to be done in Texas” for Trump, said Mark Owens, a UT-Tyler assistant professor who helped conduct the poll. “It’s going to look to be a more competitive race in Texas than it was in 2016.”

The UT-Tyler poll surveyed the crowded Democratic White House race for the first time since former El Paso Rep. Beto O’Rourke this month ended his flagging campaign — and found that Biden remains the clear front-runner in the Lone Star State.

Among self-identified registered Democratic voters in Texas, Biden leads at 28%. He’s followed by Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders (19%), Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren (18%), Indiana mayor Pete Buttigieg (8%) and California Sen. Kamala Harris (5%).

Former San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro remains mired at 4% in his home state, despite being the only Texan in the race following O’Rourke’s departure.

Owens, the UT-Tyler professor, noted that the 20% of Texas Democrats who backed O’Rourke in the school’s last survey in September seemed to scatter among the other candidates, with only Warren and, to a lesser extent, Buttigieg picking up sizable chunks of support.

“Biden wasn’t able to capture more of Beto’s supporters,” Owens said, despite the former vice president’s top-tier standing.

No matter the Democratic candidate, Trump would win in a November general election in Texas, according to the UT-Tyler survey. Indeed, only Sanders and Biden would come within single digits of Trump in Texas, reflecting the state’s standing as a GOP stronghold.

The UT-Tyler poll also took a look at the Democratic race to take on longtime GOP Sen. John Cornyn.

That battle remains up for grabs, with more than half of Texas Democrats saying they’re not sure who they would support. Cristina Tzintún Ramirez garnered 9.4%, followed by MJ Hegar at 8.5%, Royce West at 8.3%, Amanda Edwards at 8.1% and Chris Bell at 7.4%.

“They’re at an equal platform for one of them to start emerging as the leading candidate,” said Owens, the UT-Tyler assistant professor.

The UT-Tyler poll, conducted Nov. 5-14, surveyed nearly 1,100 registered voters in Texas via a mixture of online and phone surveys. The overall error margin is plus-minus 2.96 percentage points, while the error margin for the Democratic-specific results is plus-minus 4.7 percentage points.
