Alabama Senate Poll: Roy Moore, with Majority Support, Takes Commanding Lead over Luther Strange.
Brietbart ^ | 8-20-2017 | Matthew Boyle

Posted on 08/20/2017 11:45:19 AM PDT by tennmountainman

A new poll shows former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore with a commanding lead over Luther Strange, the Washington establishment backed candidate, heading into the GOP primary runoff for the Alabama U.S. Senate seat left open this year. The poll from JMC Analytics provided to Breitbart News ahead of its public release shows Moore with 51 percent, a majority, supporting him, while Strange trails nearly 20 points behind with just 32 percent—and 17 percent are undecided. Moore’s commanding lead comes after he outperformed polls to finish around 39 percent in a multi-way primary this past Tuesday. Strange finished the first round of voting with just under 33 percent, and this poll seems to indicate that Moore is the only candidate gaining more votes while Strange is stuck with a ceiling of what he got on primary day before the runoff.

Looks like Mo Brooks voters moving over to Moore in this new poll Brietbart has obtained. McConnell would be foolish to waste millions of dollars in this race, where that money could go elsewhere to unseat a RAT. Will McConnell and Trump cut their losses and spend that money somewhere else or double down against Moore?

I couldn’t vote for anyone named Luther Strange, anyway.

As I recall reading recently, Trump wish both men the best of luck.

I believe Luther would be leading but he hitch his ride with Mitch McConnell. We’re tired of the GOPe. We see what they did to Chris McDaniel in Mississippi. The GOPe and ultra-liberal chamber of commerce won’t be deciding our representatives in DC.

It is really telling that the GOPe is backing somebody so ethically challenged as Strange. More scares them, and when he wins the primary he won’t get any support from the GOPe in the general.

This was how we got the Canadian Ted Cruz into the Senate. The very popular Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst was running and Cruz managed to get enough votes to force the primary, then with a motivated base and a special primary (which low info voters don’t vote in), he took the prize.

More and more Moore. God grant him wisdom. He underwent great frustration as a judge since the secular law to which he was sworn diverged more and more from his ideal. I hope he goes after substance before symbol as a senator. I remain skeptical about wishing the Ten Commandments on a society that doesn’t want them and isn’t ready for them. The Noahide commandments are enough challenge at this point.

I strongly suspect Trump will be pleased as punch to see Moore win.

Since being appointed to fill Session's seat, Luther Strange has voted for the Trump agenda pretty much 100%. It would be a slap in the face for Trump not to endorse a sitting senator for that loyalty. Trump is showing the rest of the senators that if they are loyal to him, he'll return the favor.

Trump is supporting the establishment candidate Luther Strange. So why attach Trump’s slogans (Winning/MAGA) to an article about how far behind the leader his preferred candidate is?
