Alabama Senate polls

[Polybius]

This is a couple of weeks ago, but it's the first I'm hearing of it. The real bad news is that this poll came before Jones voted to convict Trump, yikes! Anyway, here's a snip:

All three of them would beat Mr. Jones, according to the poll.

The poll found Mr. Sessions beating Mr. Jones 54%-41%, while Mr. Tuberville led him 50%-42% and Mr. Byrne by 51%-42%.

Overall, Mr. Jones came out underwater, with 47% of those polled viewing him unfavorably and just 31% favorably.

The poll was conducted while the Senate was mulling its vote in President Trump’s impeachment trial. Mr. Trump remains popular in Alabama, and Mr. Jones‘ Feb. 5 vote to remove him was regarded by some Alabama prognosticators as a death sentence to his reelection prospects.

1. I've always thought of Sen Jones as a one term senator...

if EVERY democrat in Alabama voted for him it would still be a close race. Democrats are in a large minority here.

2. The Moonie Times??

Not a highly regarded source around these here parts.

3. Probably not but they are not wrong

We need to win a senate seat to replace it and of course five more.

4. In still hopeful.

The black turnout is usually highly underestimated in AL. I'm counting on black women to do it for Doug just as we did it for Edwards in LA. Geaux Doug!
