Contributing sentiments towards policy:

69% : "We have another great U.S. senator, Ted Cruz, and it's time we have another great senator that will actually stand up and fight for Republican values, fight for the values of the people of Texas and also support Trump.
57% : Trump will likely loom over the race, with both candidates pressing for his endorsement.
26% : "Democrats are trying to destroy President Trump, and he and Texas need a battle-tested conservative who knows how to protect his agenda in the Senate and won't be outsmarted by Chuck Schumer,'' the campaign said.
17% : "I can certainly point to many things like his gun restrictions, his lack of wanting to fund a border wall and disagreeing with President Trump on that, and even opposing President Trump's election in 2016 and the most recent election.
5% : Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy, who drew the ire of the president and his allies over his vote to convict Trump at his second impeachment trial, is being challenged by state Treasurer and former Rep. John Fleming.
