MONTGOMERY, Alabama — Judge Roy Moore, the conservative GOP nominee for the U.S. Senate in Alabama, maintains a solid lead over Democrat Doug Jones, a new poll obtained exclusively by Breitbart News shows. The poll from WT&S Consulting of 11,641 likely voters conducted from November 18 to November 20, with a margin of error of 1.2 percent, has Moore at 46.4 percent—towering six points over Jones, who is stuck down at 40.5 percent—while 13.1 percent are undecided.
The survey includes 60.9 percent Republicans and 39.1 percent Democrats—approximately the margins by which President Donald Trump defeated failed 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton in Alabama.
“This survey shows Roy Moore tracking down slightly but still holding a 5.9 percent lead,” pollster John Wahl told Breitbart News.
“Undecided had the most significant increase while Doug Jones also gained some support over the last ten days. Polling has been all over the place in this special election for U.S. Senate. I have seen numbers ranging from Roy Moore being ten points up to him being eight points down, and that’s surveys conducted during the same time frame. There have even been polls where Barack Obama had a higher favorable rating than Donald Trump. Clearly, that does not properly represent the voting history we have seen in Alabama’s past elections. My objective with this survey was to get some clarity on where this race actually is. I wanted to survey a massive sampling of registered voters and let them speak for themselves. With 11,641 respondents, I feel we have accomplished that mission.”
Wahl’s firm has done some work for the Moore campaign this election cycle, but before the runoff in the GOP primary where Moore smoked appointed incumbent Sen. Luther Strange to win the nomination by nearly double digits.

I agree, too. It’s hard enough to pass anything with a two-seat majority, without making it harder. But I have to note the calculation that went into Trump’s decision. It’s really his duty to be cautious in his support. If he backs a candidate who crashes and burns, the MSM will twist that around to mean whatever they want it to, and there are enough Never Trump-ers around to make hay of it within the party, as well.
well, i thought of Loretta Lynn ad her husband. 15 years old and 21. Although the rumor is really she was 13.
The standards are so hollow. Getting married when you are such ages is supposedly wrong, but having sex and abortions is not. That’s absurd IMO.
However, I’m so over hearing grown ass women whining about someone grabbing their ass or boob one time over twenty years ago.
Next time slap their face and tell them to screw off and be a big girl.
Some men are boorish and make clumsy crude advances, but a real woman should be able to handle this and move on.
Same goes for al Franklin? The hypocrisy this site has allowed over the last few weeks is astonishing. Not what you once were, Jim, not by a long shot. Hope it gets figured out, but this bullshit is ridiculous. Out.
This isn’t about the women.
It’s about making Leftists live by the rules they set up.
All the Jones commercials showing over the river here in GA have absolutely no association, or mention of the Democratic Party. Why is that? /s
Gloria Allred is losing her mojo.
Hopefully there will not be triple digit percentages being counted in some of Alabama’s more heavily populated areas, as was just published about the last Presidential Election in Maine!
When 102% percent of the actual population of the two most populated county’s votes for Hillary, like what has now been learned in Maine, you can suspect a problem.
While I appreciate the work Levin has done, especially in his books, and while I am still glad he is on the radio, Levin and Shapiro can be some of the most arrogant people in conservative talk radio.
There are times when I just have to turn off Levin, after he has completely missed the point of a caller, rudely hung up on them, and then called them names normally reserved for liberals.
There are times when Levin is entertaining, but there are times when he (and Shapiro) seem like they just want to hear their own voices.
By the way, its off topic a bit, but Levin is totally wrong on the Federal Reserve, and seems to militantly run cover for them on occasion, loudly belittling any who suggest wrong took place.
Normally he is good on history, but in regard to the Federal Reserve, he clearly departs from actual Fed history, and what took place before and during the Wilson Administration with the passage of the Federal Reserve Act.
Sometimes I think Levin SHOULD hear himself - maybe he’d then sound less like “They’re Coming To Take Me Away, HaHa...”
Also OT a bit: I’d love to see Levin and others explain just how we can make major simplifications of the Tax Code, which are desperately needed, without at least temporarily dinging some people who get one break or another.
When is the election?
“He seems to state as a 32 year old, he dated a 17 year old.”
So. 17 years old is a grown woman.
Unlikely to have many true “undecideds” at this stage of the game, especially with all the publicity this race has received.
My guess is that a large part of that 13% are “silent Moore voters”. Some, as others are saying, might just stay home. I think if they were so morally outraged as to vote against Moore, they would be morally outraged enough to say so.
I should be getting my absentee ballot next week, and will cast for Moore. Most folks can be said now to be skeptical.
They are skeptical of McConnell. They are skeptical of the WaPo, CNN, and NYT’s crowd. They are skeptical of Luther Strange. They were skeptical of Governor Bentley. They are skeptical of any newspaper published in the state. I think Moore likely wins because of the ongoing skeptical view of folks there. If you ask most if Moore is a bit crazy...they will respond yes, but they feel there were not that many folks they knew much about and they didn’t trust Strange.
Where is the disagreement on her being a 14 year old? Is she 14 or 17? Moore haters seem to insist she was 14.
