[url]https://www.politico.com/story/2017/11/16/roy-moore-doug-jones-alabama-poll-245558[/url] [quote]Democrat Doug Jones has an 8-point lead over embattled Republican Roy Moore in the Alabama special Senate election, according to a new poll released Thursday that shows voters are equally divided on the accusations of sexual misconduct against the GOP nominee. The Fox News poll — conducted Monday through Wednesday — shows Jones leading Moore among likely voters, 50 percent to 42 percent. Just 2 percent would vote for another candidate, and 7 percent are undecided.[/quote]
Has there actually been any proof of sexual misconduct other than she said he said?

[QUOTE=Amplar;52897923]Has there actually been any proof of sexual misconduct other than she said he said?[/QUOTE] Quite a lot of first hand sources, and more second hand sources.
In other news, Alabama is a liberal bastion now [media]https://twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/931314460773400576[/media]
Meanwhile Trump's sexual assault allegations continue to go nowhere.
I'm fucking stunned that it's that close. 42% of people [i]still[/i] stand by him, probably in no small part from his Trump tactics.

[QUOTE=dustyjo;52898070]Meanwhile Trump's sexual assault allegations continue to go nowhere.[/QUOTE] Court dates are coming.
This is gonna be such an interesting election night. There's so many factors that could push things [I]heavily[/I] in favor of either candidate. It almost feels like it could go any possible way and the result wouldn't be too surprising.
If Moore wins then Alabama will go from a close second in my "worst state in the union" list behind Florida to a definitive first. The fact that a sizable portion of Alabama can say "I'd rather vote for a pedophile than a democrat" speaks volumes about the people living there.
Good to know, thanks all
At this rate in a couple years there'll be serial killers running for office with the Republican party, but its ok because they only murder Democrats.
