According to opinion polls, the Democratic senator from Vermont has the support of 34% of Texas's main Democratic voters. His support is also significantly ahead of former Vice President Biden's 19%. However, previous analysis pointed out that in Texas, more conservative Democratic candidates such as Biden and Bloomberg ultimately win.
Data show that Bloomberg and Massachusetts-based senator Warren followed closely with 15% and 10%, respectively.
According to reports, party candidates have invested significant time and resources in Texas. The state has 228 party votes, second only to California's 415.
Biden won the South Carolina primaries on February 29, but multiple polls show that Sanders leads Biden in multiple states. Sanders needs major wins in both California and Texas to get the majority vote needed to win the nomination. Both states can also test Sanders' actual influence among Latino voters. The Latino ethnic group is also one of his main targets in this year's campaign.
NBC and Marist polls also surveyed the support of both parties in the Texas election. In a hypothetical duel between US President Trump and Sanders, 49% of registered voters chose Trump and 45% supported Sanders. In the comparison between Trump and Biden, Trump led by the same advantage.
