Opinion Savvy has a terrible record, but I don’t see anything ‘off’ about the poll.
It’s a “fun” poll: Strange maxes out at 12% LOL!

One month to go before vote. Unless there is more evidence to come out against Moore that will keep this as big news for another month, the WashPo released it too early.

What people are thinking about one month, is not always what they are thinking about the next.

Things that make you go, “Hmmmmm....”

Hopefully, after the Democrats and RINOs have immersed the country in lies for the last 18 months, voters will recognize this for what it is and do the right thing.

Polls right after something hits are notoriously misleading. If the poll says ithat they are tied, Moore is significantly ahead.

If that is the best they can do the day after, Moore will win.

Remember Trump was like 14 down to Hillary Clinton in the first public polls after the Access Hollywood thing.

Depending on what part of the state you took the poll,it could be skewed.

The Globalists and their GOP-elite servants are determined to never again let an election get out of their control. That’s what this is all about, and I believe it will backfire on them.

I haven’t forgotten all the ridiculous, transparent sexual harassment accusations against Donald Trump that were circulating in the weeks before his election. I wonder if Trump himself has forgotten them?

He was running away with it.

No, he wasn't. A Fox News poll in late October also had the race tied.

Moore's polls were like +6, tied, +2, etc. He was not "running away with it."

The good news is this seat is up for reelection in 2018.

Fake news.

In 2-3 days we’ll see polls showing Moore is behind.

Don’t believe any of it.

To the fine folks in Alabama, get out & vote for Moore!!!

it says most of the polls were taken BEFORE the allegations, but title of article suggests the 6 pt drop is due to allegations? Get your lies straight before you publish.

Not sure what they got wrong here. The new poll after allegations has the race tied. The average of polls taken before the allegations have Moore up by 6. Thus it seems reasonable to suspect that the new poll being 6 lower than the average may be a reflection of the effect of the allegations....since they are big news right now. This seems to me consistent with how sex scandal accusations play out.

However, the question remains if these accusations "have legs" as they say. Is there going to be more evidence or more accusations or something that keeps this in the news and makes it seem more plausible. If not, I think the Washington Post took their shot too early and Moore will likely recover his lead, if indeed he had lost it, before Dec 12 when the election takes place.

Imho the Deep state, Republican senatorial committee and the gope pulled the trigger too early on this gambit. Should have waited to just after Thanksgiving.

I suspect the GOPe as much as the demoncraps.

This is edging closer to a civil war that the elite bastards may well regret they started.

“...this is a setup.”

“Setup”. That’s the word I was looking for. And people will recognize it for what it is.

I think this will blow over to some degree as people realize this is a setup.

Yep. I think the GOPe overplayed their hand. It was just too quick before everyone had the exact same script of talking points to not look like an obvious coordinated hit job.
