JMC Analytics Poll: Roy Moore Up 8 Points Over Democrat in Alabama Senate Race

Breitbart: A new JMC Analytics poll has former Alabama Supreme Court Justice Roy Moore up eight points over his Democratic challenger Doug Jones.

 

The poll conducted September 30-October 1 revealed Moore is a strong statewide candidate, but is somewhat vulnerable in the urban and suburban areas of Alabama, particularly in the Mobile media market where he trails Jones by 10 points.

According to JMC Analytics’ John Couvillon, Moore’s vulnerabilities in those precincts are attributed to last month’s bitter runoff contest he had with Luther Strange. Strange and Strange allies spent upwards of $30 million by some estimates on the contest, which had a focus on attacking Strange’s opponents, including Moore in the runoff and Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) in the primary.

“What I think that’s all about is the remnant of the bitter runoff contest because if you were to look at the runoff results in the biggest counties in urban and suburban, and you were to dig deeper into the results published, one of the things that is going to be Moore’s biggest challenge is that now that you’re talking about a general election environment, which includes a 24 percent black electorate, Moore has to be competitive in those urban and especially those suburban counties,” Couvillon said in an interview with Breitbart News.
