Roy Moore ahead in Alabama

Nine days out from the U.S. Senate special election in Alabama

In the Alabama Senate special election so far, 11 independent organizations have collectively spent $3.2 million on the general election. Approximately 92 percent of that spending came from Highway 31, a super PAC formed on November 6, 2017, to support the candidacy of former U.S. attorney Doug Jones (D).

On Thursday, a new poll from JMC Analytics has former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore (R) leading former U.S. attorney Doug Jones (D) by five points in the Alabama Senate special election, 48 percent to 34 percent. This is a turnabout from the four-point lead Jones held roughly two weeks ago in the last JMC survey following allegations of sexual misconduct and assault against Moore. [Ballotpedia]
