RealClearPolitics just moved Texas into the toss-up catagory; the current polling average has Trump leading by about 4 points.

Is Texas actually sliding blue this election? If it is, what other states might flip?

Not anymore, the news just reported that Trump has a 3 point lead over Clinton. And Clinton has a 3 point lead over Trump in Fla. Now the Republican party just announced that they will support and vote for Trump . because he's still very close in the polls, their voted can put trump over the top in the swing states.

That could move, but not enough to flip.

Texas was most probable going to flip in a few years due to demographics and simple aging, but that was some years off.

But this year Trump managed to piss off Hispanics en-mass and women in general, and seems to be intent on leading a get out the vote effort for the DEMOCRATS, I think that It is probably unlikely that Hillary wins Texas, but its future as a purple state seems undeniable.

AZ is probably going to vote Blue their loudmouth ex-governor insulting the Hispanic population recently pretty much guarantees that. Again a Republican driving Democrats to the polls en-mass.

Texas is primarily conservative from my understanding.

Most of the big cities out here are primarily liberal though.
