Alabama race is neck and neck, with voters divided over Roy Moore allegations, poll finds
By Michael Scherer and Scott Clement

Alabama’s closely watched U.S. Senate race is a neck-and-neck contest as voter concerns about personal moral conduct weigh on the candidacy of Republican Roy Moore, according to a new Washington Post-Schar School poll.

This Washington Post -Schar poll makes it clear, it is too close to call,  Jones' lead is within the margin of error, could go either way. It must be a 9 point differential, quite a lot, to say one side is truly leading.

Moore is completely comfortable with necking.
I disagree.  Circle gets the square.
