Research 2000's polling for the Daily KOS is not good news for the two Republicans, Railroad Commissioner Michael Williams and State Senator Florence Shapiro of Plano, who have formally announced they are running for the U.S. Senate seat everyone believes will be vacated by Kay Bailey Hutchison when she decides to run for governor. Both Williams and Shapiro trail the two announced Democratic candidates, Former Comptroller John Sharp and Houston Mayor Bill White.
However, if you throw the names of a pair of Republicans who are not announced into the mix, Attorney General Greg Abbott and Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst, they come out on top in matches against Sharp and White.
On the governor's side, both Hutchison and incumbent Gov. Hair seem comfortably ahead of the one announced Democratic candidate, Tom Schieffer. Hutchison has a 57-35 percent lead, while Hair's advantage is 52-37.
