The final Emerson College poll of Texas likely primary voters finds James Talarico (D) with a narrow edge over Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D) in the Democratic Primary for U.S. Senate: 52% to 47%.

In the Republican primary, 40% support Ken Paxton and 36% Sen. John Cornyn, while 17% support Rep. Wesley Hunt.
