Doug Jones up by 5%

quote:

Democrat Doug Jones holds a 5-point advantage over Republican Roy Moore in the latest polling of likely voters in Alabama's hotly contested Senate race. Florida-based Gravis Marketing, a nonprofit research firm, conducted a random survey of 628 voters across Alabama through Nov. 14-15, and shows Jones ahead with 47 percent to Moore's 42 percent, with 11 percent uncertain . The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.


But I'm sure this board has an excuse as to why this isn't accurate, let's hear them! #NoMoore #SuckItRoy

Maybe it's just me, but I'm fairly certain Moore leads in the vast majority of polling on this race.

If you can't beat someone with as much controversy as Roy Moore has had the last 2 weeks, you should quit politics.

This sounds eerily familiar. I know I have heard this story before. Where was that?

We've seen 3 or 4 different polls.... Completely different

First Moore was down big after being up days before (22pt swing)

Then we see Moore is ahead by about 6% (probably closer to truth)

Now Doug Jones "maintains" a 5% lead? Yeah. Not buying it. Not buying any of them honestly.

There is simply no way most of the Moore voters are staying on the polls and answering

It's much like Trump. Many people won't admit it but they will just go vote for the seat.

Plus, Doug Jones is that terrible

Remember when Hillary was leading in the polls until Election Day?

Doubtful that holds. We can send up a prayer, though. Perhaps our God can take the time to hand down a little discipline. It would certainly do those people some good.

How accurate were the polls a year ago in the Presidential election, and what is your excuse for that?

The results in mich, wisc and pa were well within the moe.
we understand the moe concept. Sampling error, with 600 sample is what? 4? 3?
What was the result?
Trump won those by less than 1/2%.
