US election 2020: Can Democrats take Texas and Florida?

The term suggests either Mr Biden or Mr Trump could take the state, with both on chances of 48.1 percent as of this morning.

James Henson, director of the Texas Politics Project, told the Atlantic voter turnout, which traditionally benefits Democrats, could decide the race in the Lone Star State.

He said: “The raw numbers in Texas, and the year-to-year or the election-to-election increase [in voter turnout] is really, you know, fairly stunning.

“Texas is competitive this year, and it’s much more competitive than we’ve seen for 20 years.”

Although hopes are high, they remain hopes only, as a win currently seems difficult to call, but Mr Biden doesn’t need it to beat Mr Trump.
