Moore leads Strange and Brooks in latest Alabama Senate poll
Source: Montgomery Advertiser
Former Chief Justice Roy Moore holds a notable lead in the Alabama Republican Senate primary, according to a poll released Monday.
The survey of 500 Republican voters by Louisiana-based JMC Analytics and Polling which reached a large number of groups traditionally supportive of Moore found judge leading the crowded GOP field with 30 percent of the vote. U.S. Sen. Luther Strange got 22 percent of the vote, while U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Huntsville, had 19 percent. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percent.
Roy Moore leads the field based on his strength in northern Alabama, while Luther Strange runs relatively strongly across most of the state, JMC stated in a summary section. Mo Brooks has regional strength in the Huntsville media market while garnering at least 10 percent in the other media markets.
Sen. Trip Pittman, R-Montrose, got 6 percent of the vote, while Dr. Randy Brinson, the former head of the Christian Coalition of Alabama, got 2 percent. Seventeen percent of those surveyed said they were undecided.
