Poll: Roy Moore leads Republican field to challenge Doug Jones
www.nbcnews.com

April 16, 2019, 11:19 AM CDT
WASHINGTON — Former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore is leading the Republican field vying for the party’s 2020 nomination to challenge Sen. Doug Jones, the Democrat who beat Moore in 2017, according to a survey released Tuesday.

Moore leads among could-be GOP candidates with 27 percent in the poll from Mason-Dixon Polling & Strategy, just a year and a half after losing what was widely viewed as a safe seat for Alabama Republicans. He's trailed by three Alabama congressmen: Mo Brooks at 18 percent, Bradley Byrne at 13, and Gary Palmer at 11. The poll also suggests Moore holds a net approval rating in the state — 34 percent of voters view him favorably compared to 29 percent who view him unfavorably.

Out of the potential Republican candidates included in the poll, only Byrne has formally announced his candidacy. But Moore has suggested that he is interested in running again, and this poll could help him come to a decision. Fifty percent of registered Alabama voters say they want to replace Jones with a Republican.

People did not show up for Moore, to vote for him last time.

The left got the African Americans out in practically record numbers.

Doug Jones does not reflect Alabama values.

It could be different this time but Moore has to ingratiate himself with the people.

Please no.

If he cannot win statewide in Ala-flipping-Bama, he has no business running.

Maybe he'd do a mite better at the GOTV without the slanders and social media campaigns against him, ya think?

Good, looks like folks are pissed at what was done to Roy... and they ought to be.

In other news close to 90% of Doug Jones money came from out of state sources...

Someone said "doing the same thing and expecting a different result"... well this time Doug knows that he pulled a fast one and the same tricks will not work. He now runs ads that specify not to play in Alabama, but in liberal states like California for donations.

Folks here aren't real happy about out of state people telling us what to do. In fact, most folks resent meddling from elsewhere. If those ads get exposed in Alabama, they could backfire on Jones, I would think.   :whistle:

After all, it was meddling and money from elsewhere that got Jones in office.

Moore's widest lead among the potential candidates in the poll was recorded among women. Moore had the support of 31 percent of women.

Looks like some ladies are a little ticked at having the wool pulled over the eyes the last election.

Among the potential challengers, both Mo Brooks and Gary Palmer are good choices also... Byrne is a RINO...

We put a stop to it when Brett Kavanaugh got confirmed. Moore had a chance to put a stop to it and failed.

Professional accusers never admit they're wrong and never shut up. Look at Michael Avenatti.

Seems she has shut up, when pressed on which place she claims he took her to, she didn't know if it was a trailer (which he lived in while his home was being constructed) or a house and couldn't/wouldn't commit to either because she didn't know which one to claim. She couldn't say if it was a paved driveway or a gravel driveway. She claimed he had a TV and everyone that knew Moore knew he didn't have a TV back then. Her lawyers tried to get Moore to give them the information but he wouldn't and now they are stonewalling because they know if they guess wrong they are 100% proven liars.

So yeah, she has shut up for now.

The accusers were largely discredited after the election and the Democrats tossed them away like tampons. Picking them back up is going to be tricky, especially after all the hoaxes and the Democrats having to abandon the #MeToo movement.

There may be some GOP options better skilled to fight back.

Moore is far from a safe bet, however.

   That's been my contention all along.
   It is up to the people of Alabama and only Alabama, to Elect who they want to represent them in the US Senate.

You're kidding yourself if you think the Dems are gonna stop with the smear tactics because Kavanaugh got put in office.

They'll just double down and try harder next time.  And there will e a next time.
