Hungary's polls hint at Tisza lead as election nears

With Hungary's Sunday vote approaching, polls show the opposition Tisza Party leading Fidesz, though projections vary; Medián alone suggests Tisza could win 138–143 of 199 seats, potentially a two-thirds majority, while other polls show smaller leads or a Fidesz win. Demographics favor Tisza among the young and educated, and scandals affecting the government have dented support, making turnout and undecided voters crucial as Orbán remains cautiously confident.

Eight Decades of Polls Show Americans’ Enduring Space Fascination

A CNN review of nearly 80 years of public opinion polls shows Americans generally value space exploration and NASA, with support rising since the Apollo era and remaining relatively nonpartisan, even as cost concerns can sway replies. Current polling around Artemis II indicates broad backing for human spaceflight and NASA’s high favorability, while private companies and space tourism are increasingly part of the conversation, with experts projecting spaceflight becoming routine by the 2070s.

Texas Democrat Talarico Tops Cornyn and Paxton in Tight Internal Poll

An internal campaign poll shows Democrat James Talarico narrowly leading Republican Sen. John Cornyn (43–41) and Attorney General Ken Paxton (44–43) in hypothetical Texas general elections. Both Republicans are broadly unpopular, especially among independents, with Paxton and Cornyn facing large unfavorable ratings. The memo credits Talarico’s coalition—young and Latino voters and party-switchers—for momentum and frames the race as a referendum on political establishment, though the outcome remains close ahead of a potential runoff. The update appears alongside other national political stories in a live feed.

Trump's Iran War Struggles to Win Support at Home

The article argues that Trump entered the Iran conflict with little public backing and now faces mounting domestic opposition, with polls showing a majority against the war and voters wary of rising living costs and oil prices. It notes that the administration struggled to build a convincing public rationale, highlights fractures in conservative support, and suggests the political risks may force an earlier end to the conflict as midterms approach.

US views of Canada and UK cool in Trump era, Gallup finds

Gallup’s February 2026 poll shows Americans’ favorable views of Canada and the United Kingdom have cooled, driven largely by Republicans, though overall positivity remains strong. Canada’s Republican favorability fell from 85% to 62%, and Britain’s to 64% (an 18-point drop from a prior low); Independents’ views slipped for Britain (72%) and Canada (80%). Democrats remain highly favorable toward Canada (99? Wait: correct to 95%), Canada at 95% and Britain at 89% (down from 93%). Japan and Italy top the rankings, with Canada tied for third with Denmark. The report notes diplomatic frictions over conflicts and trade; Trump has critiqued UK leadership and base access while Canada pursues new trade ties. Canadians and Britons also show skepticism about the U.S. as a reliable ally. Methodology: Gallup telephone survey of 1,001 U.S. adults, Feb 2–16, 2026; margin of ±4 percentage points.

Texas primaries: When polls close and how quickly results arrive

Polls in most of Texas close at 8 p.m. ET, with the far western edge (El Paso) closing at 9 p.m. ET; CNN won’t project statewide races until the full race is closed, though some congressional races may project starting at 8 p.m. ET. Early results typically come quickly, often with more than half of ballots reported in the first hour and the majority by midnight, but statewide tallies can spill into the early morning. The article also notes North Carolina’s results may be delayed due to a precinct issue and Arkansas polls closing at 8:30 p.m. ET.

Biden Goes on Offense in South Carolina, Attacking Trump and Immigration Policy

Biden Goes on Offense in South Carolina, Attacking Trump and Immigration Policy

In a roughly 20-minute speech in Columbia, Biden went on the offensive against Trump, accusing him of fixating on Obama and trying to undermine elections, while contrasting his own record (lower insulin costs, job growth) with Trump’s. He criticized Trump’s immigration stance and his handling of a Minnesota violence incident tied to immigration enforcement, and noted a NBC News poll showing disapproval of Trump’s border policy. Biden also leaned on South Carolina’s history in nominating presidents as he framed the 2028 race as a continuation of Democratic governance.
