Is Alabama committed to evil?


When my family moved to Alabama in the 1960's, some NY relatives asked if there was indoor plumbing in Alabama. They weren't joking. A couple of decades later, a member of my church said when he told his wife they were moving to Alabama, she started crying. Looks like Alabama is trying to maintain it's traditions and heritage.

Time will tell if the fact that this poll was commissioned by republicans affected the accuracy of the results. Republicans would like depress the vote for the Democratic candidate Doug Jones by making people think he does not have a chance.

Republican Roy Moore leads his Democratic opponent in the Alabama Senate race by 17 points, according to a new poll.

Moore takes 56 percent of the vote, while Democrat Doug Jones takes 39 percent, according to a survey commissioned by the Senate Leadership Fund (SLF), which has ties to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), and conducted by Axis Research.

The results of the survey come a little more than one month before the special election to fill the seat vacated by Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

As the Republican, Moore has long been expected to win in the deep-red state. But more recent polls have proved surprisingly close, with the RealClearPolitics poll average currently putting Moore up only 6 points over Jones.
