Texas Trends 2024: General Election Release

In 2021, the Hobby School of Public Affairs at the University of Houston and the Executive Master of Public Administration Program in the Barbara Jordan – Mickey Leland School of Public Affairs at Texas Southern University launched a five-year survey project to study Texas’s changing population. 

The fourth survey in the series was fielded between June 20 and July 1, 2024 and focused on opinions about elections and public policies. The survey was conducted in English and Spanish, with 2,257 YouGov respondents 18 years of age and older (including an oversample of Black Texans), resulting in a confidence interval of +/-2.1 for the overall survey population and +/- 2.5 for the sub-population of 1,484 likely voters. 

The respondents were matched to a sampling frame on gender, age, race/ethnicity, and education and are representative of the Texas adult population. The results of this 2024 statewide survey will be presented in five separate reports: the November 2024 election, school choice/vouchers, housing, immigration, and climate challenges. 

This report examines the vote intention of Texas likely voters in the November 2024 presidential, U.S. Senate and Texas railroad commissioner elections as well as explores the impact of different issues and events on the presidential vote decision of Texas likely voters.
