With less than three weeks to go until the primary election on March 3, a new Alabama Daily News poll shows a tight race among Republican contenders for the U.S. Senate.
According to the survey of likely Republican voters, if the election were held today, 31% would vote for former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions, 29% would choose former Auburn football coach Tommy Tuberville and 17% would choose Congressman Bradley Byrne.
Five percent said they would choose former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore, and no other candidate registered more than 1%. Sixteen percent of voters said they were undecided.

It’s Bradley Byrne. And yes I am supporting him and will vote for him on March 3.
Tuberville will probably lose on a late field goal.
Straight down the Mobile River into the Gulf.
I see whut you did there.
“Ahhh - the inbred vote. Must be south ‘Bama - way south.”
You know, when you insult a part of the country there is probably someone on FR who is from that part of the country. I’m 15 miles from being as far south in Alabama as you can physically go. We’re not inbreds. Nor, as a poster said a couple of weeks ago, do we have an IQ of 20.
“I’ll support Bradley Burns before Tuberville but I will vote for Tuberville if he’s the republican nominee.”
That’s about where I am too.”
Me, too. Bradley just isn’t that well known up north. I believe Tubberville claims to be a major Trump supporter but I really don’t know that much about him. Of course I will vote for whoever gets the nomination. We’ve got to get Jones out of there.
Tubby is a 100% fraud....
I will take the southern inbred vote over the faggot vote by libs anytime.
Oh thank God.
Chief Justice Moore was one of the best, most courageous jurists in the nation who had a Senate seat stolen from him for opposing the Derp State. An excellent man. I can’t say the same for ignorant, rabid moonbats who attack him or his supporters.
He’s also from Gadsden, which is NE Alabama, not that that would matter to you.
Moore may have been a great judge, but he might have been the most awful political candidate I’ve seen on the national stage. When he wasn’t mailing it in, the guy spent most of his time campaigning for votes among people who were going to vote for him anyway. Riding a horse and drawing a gun on stage at a rally didn’t win that guy a single vote he wouldn’t have gotten anyway.
Some of our people are natural-born campaigners (Trump), some not so much. But he got screwed from all sides, and the RINO Establishment worked overtime to make sure the Coup-supporting Demonrat Jones was elected. Dick Shelby should’ve been tossed out on his ass for working against Moore.
By the way ... Mo Brooks made the same promise in 2017, and I’m sure that’s a big reason why he didn’t even bother running this time around.
He was also the very first senator to support Trump. Trump didn’t have a lot of credibility in the early stages but Sessions stuck his neck out and supported him.
I think Sessions was a deep state plant.
Roy Moore lost in Alabama. I don't care if some think he got a raw deal, if you're a Republican who's so incompetent you can't win a statewide general election in Alabama in the year 2017, you don't deserve another chance. Moore should never be the party's nominee for U.S. Senate ever again.
McConnell was, for a long time, a very unpopular figure with the base. That was not an unpopular position to take. But responding to this by backing the Demonrat nutjob who voted for the coup was insane.
I wish Mo Brooks had run this time.
You had the PARTY working against him. Dick Shelby was working against him. They were doing anything and everything to see Jones elected instead. This would’ve been like the Republican party chairs and elected officials deciding in October 2016 that they were going to elect Hillary. A HUGE difference.
Sessions showed he was either too stupid or too compromised to stand up to the corrupt democrats. He should go home.
The CEO ( Tim Cook)) of the highest tech and richest company in the world, Apple is from rural south Alabama, Robertsdale.
Like I told my son (lives in LA), presumably they couldn't find anyone of that quality in California.
I’ll tell you this, too. I’m sure Roy Moore is a fine man, but he has the absolute wrong personality to serve in a legislative body. I’m sure the Republicans dumped him because they knew he’d be the most erratic and unreliable member of the U.S. Senate.
He also did himself no favors by pissing off the Alabama GOP leadership for years. To this day, he STILL has never conceded his 2006 loss in the GOP primary for the governor’s race ... even though he was running against a popular incumbent Republican governor.
