Alabama Senate: Roy Moore Up by 11 Over Democrat Jones
Paul Gattis reports at Al.com:
A Senate poll commissioned by Raycom News Network indicated that Republican candidate Roy Moore has a double-digit lead over Democrat Doug Jones.
Moore's 11-point lead over Jones is his biggest yet in five polls conducted during the general election campaign and comes two days after a Fox News poll had the race tied.
"I think the challenge for the Jones campaign is bigger than what these numbers show," pollster Jonathan Gray of Strategy Research, which conducted survey, said, according to Gattis. "Even if he were able to close the gap, how do you turn out Democrats in a state that hasn't had a viable Democratic Party in almost a dozen years?"
Moore is among serveral anti-GOP establishment, pro-Trump Senate 2018 candidates endorsed by the Great America PAC, whose chief strategist is Ed Rollins.
