Same in Huntsville. Mostly in the 5 points and Blossomwood areas. None in the rural areas.

I've never put a sign up.
I've never put a bumper sticker on my vehicle.
I was polled once and answered in the opposite on every question.


I haven't always voted for the winning candidate, but I've never been wrong about who will win.

Jones is not winning this race.

If the democrats would have run a moderate blue dog candidate...they would have taken the seat. But they got greedy...I would call them stupid but the GOP has Ray Moore as their candidate

I wasn't alive for George Wallace. Roy Moore is easily the worst candidate in my life time that I've had the opportunity to vote for/against.

I'm beginning to think it's in their best longer term interest to not win this race.

If Roy Moore wins, GOP is "the Party of Roy Moore" all the way through midterms.

Sry AL dems, you're gonna get thrown under the bus.

Someone should ask Duggie if his voting record will lockstep Senate Dems over 90 percent of the time, and if he can be independent of Chuck Schumer.

He will have to lie to answer.

When I start seeing/hearing about a whole bunch of them popping up in unusual places then I might take notice. I expect to hear about them in places where dem-prog support is already predictable (Selma-Montgomery,parts of Baldwin co.,Madison co.,and Jeff co.) but its not likely that we'll hear about many in solid red counties.

I’ve seen more Jones signs in the Birmingham area than any other statewide candidate in recent memory. Remember, Moore has shown in the past that he is capable of underperforming.

It’s indicative that the race is closer than it should be but it’s not indicative that Jones will win. Plenty of candidates in the past have won the sign count in the urban areas and lost the election.

Jones would be much better off if he was moderate but he has a good reputation and that’s probably earning him some goodwill with people across the aisle.

This reminds me so much of the Vitter/JBE governors race.

A republican co worker is voting democrat for the first time ever and my other republican co workers are not voting at all because of Roy Moore. I'm trying to get them to vote Jones, but not sure I'll have any luck. At least not voting at all is better than voting Moore. Lots of Doug Jones signs in Mobile.

VItter lost plain & simple because he likes hookers and blow and JBE ran as pro life

Jones is pro choice as far as I know...if you believe abortion is murder, you tend to not vote for the pro murder candidate

Anecdotal I know, but I've spoken to several right-leaning friends who will not vote for Roy Moore. Note that most profess to be evangelical Christians.

I'd say 80% of all the people I grew up with and know in Alabama vote Republican or Libertarian and almost all of them are embarrassed by Roy Moore and wish he'd go away. I'd go as far as saying that most of them would gladly vote for Doug Jones IF the Republicans had a comfortable majority in the Senate but unfortunately that's not the case. Unfortunately, there's too much riding on each and every Senate race to forgo voting for the Republican no matter how nauseating the idea of Senator Roy Moore is.
