Jones Grabs Lead In Alabama

https://politicalwire.com/2017/11/12/jones-grabs-lead-alabama/

"SNIP........

A new JMC Analytics poll in Alabama finds Doug Jones (D) now leading Roy Moore (R) in the U.S. Senate special election run off, 46% to 42%, with 9% undecided.

Interesting: “While 38% of poll participants said they were ‘less likely’ to vote for Moore in the aftermath of the allegations, 29% said it made them ‘more likely’ to vote for him and 33% said it made ‘no difference.'”

While I agree with the sentiment, I can't help but see his name in the term and think that leads to a bad connotation.

She said it will be in December
Some were hoping she'd move it beyond the 75-day window to allow someone else to be the nominee
