Two brand new polls released on Thursday have Republican President Donald Trump ahead of Democrat Joe Biden in Texas.

In the first poll, from The New York Times and Siena College Research Institute, Trump is leading Biden by 3 points, 46-43%. Libertarian Jo Jorgensen and Green Howie Hawkins both picked up 1% each in the poll, which included a sample audience of 653 likely Texas voters.

Meanwhile, a poll released by Quinnipiac University also showed good news for Trump in Texas, with the Republican incumbent leading Biden, 50-45%. Jorgensen and Hawkins were not named in this poll.

The new polls follow a string of September polls showing Trump on top in the presidential race in Texas. According to FiveThirtyEight, 10 polls have been released in Texas this month, with Trump leading in 7 polls, and Biden leading in 2 polls. Voters split between the two candidates in a tie from a poll released by Morning Consult on September 9, with Trump and Biden each winning 46% of support.

Early voting in the presidential race begins October 13. Election Day is November 3.
