UT Tyler TEXAS poll: Biden leads the Democratic field by about 10 points

And I had to write "about" there because Tyler has the results for both Dems only polling, and Dems and Dem-leaning independents, and while Biden's at 28% support for both, among Dems only Sanders has 19% support and Warren has 18%, among Dems and Dem-leaning independents Warren has 19% and Sanders has 18%.

Among both groups, Buttigieg has 8% and Harris has 5%. Castro is at 4% with Dems only, 3% when independents are included with Dems.

All others at 2% or less.

That's the good news, at least for supporters of the Democratic front-runner.

The bad news in this poll is that they did GE polling as well, and it showed all our candidates losing to Trump: Sanders loses by 4.3 points, Biden by 5.1, Castro by 11, Warren by 11.1, Buttigieg by 12.6, and Harris by 13.2.

Good news for Biden in the primary, and he doesn't have to have Texas in the GE to win, although that would be nice.
