Plus, Dr. Simas and Dr. Adams share their perspectives on the Houston mayoral race, whether U.S. Rep. Colin Allred poses a challenge to Senator Ted Cruz following his raising of 6.2 million dollars in the Texas Senate race, how campaigning has changed for candidates with the existence of social media and technology, and more.
