New Poll Predicts Three-Way Republican Race for Alabama’s U.S. Senate Seat

The hotly-contested Republican primary for Alabama’s U.S. Senate seat is only eleven days away, and a new poll by RRH Elections shows Luther Strange and Roy Moore are neck and neck, with Mo Brooks very much in contention in third.

The poll’s narrative says “Moore leads Strange 31% to 29%, with both candidates likely to appear in a runoff. Rep. Mo Brooks (R) trails in third with 18%. Two other candidates, State Sen. Trip Pittman (R) and physician and evangelical leader Randy Brinson (R), poll in single digits.”

Undecideds voters in the poll are still relatively high at 11%.

Next week begins the final push down the back stretch, which likely means a flood of advertising and campaigning from all three camps.

The poll’s methodology said “The survey of 426 likely Republican voters was conducted between July 31 and August 3, 2017, using both an IVR automated phone survey (369 voters) and an online survey (57 voters). It has a margin of error of 5%. ”
