If you picked up the August polling, Moore had a 7-point margin over Jones. Basically, I don’t think anything really changed or occurred. It stayed basically in the same pattern. Most Alabama folks were skeptical of the WaPo story when it came out. The more that came out....the more skeptical folks were.

The interesting thing is that it’s the mostly highly spent campaign in Alabama history, with Jones likely getting a three to one edge on donations and money spent. For Jones to lose, it means that the old strategy of dumping on folks and massive publicity ads...won’t work anymore. That might be a shocker for 2018’s election period.

“IMO, Moore will win by double digits.”

If that happens, we’ll see a repeat of election night 2016...

Gravis’s earlier polls skewed about ten points to the left. So them having Moore up five is like local pollsters having him up fifteen.

Take nothing for granted. Exude the confidence of being 10 points ahead while campaigning like you’re 10 points behind. Vote!
