Texans’ Assessments of Political Leaders in March, 2021 Statewide Polling
The most recent Texas Politics Project statewide poll focused primarily on attitudes toward the February storm that resulted in infrastructure failures throughout the state, but the poll also included job approval ratings for Texas elected officials and President Joe Biden, as well as some policy-related approval items for several leaders. We’ve gathered them in one place for reference below, with selected crosstabs and trend items where available. The poll was a collaboration between the Texas Politics Project and the UT Energy Institute. Data was collected March 19 to 26, 2021 (N=1200 self-declared registered voters).
