Trump now is sinking badly. Moore is down again, and may stay down and lose the election.
With the Senate passing its version of the tax bill, the GOP knows now that it does not Trump. Pence will do even better for the party.
And with the GOP now able to craft enough votes in the Senate, the GOP does not need Moore.
I'll betcha that Senator Moore will be sitting in his new chair for the Alabama Senate. Those polls are fake. They have them just to start trouble after the elections. The losing candidate's supporters will say, "Hey, the polls said that our candidate was winning! But then how can our candidate had lost?" And so then the supporters will request for an recount, and which a recount cost lots of money. And so the Democrat campaign officials will take in some more money during the recount, by having little old women from the church community to recount all of the ballots for $50. And the campaign officials keeps the rest. And so, do not believe those polls. They are a money making scheme.
In an interview with
New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd, the real estate mogul and Republican presidential contender explained that the other candidates “have pollsters; they pay these guys $200,000 a month to tell them, ‘Don’t say this, don’t say that, you use the wrong word, you shouldn’t put a comma here.’ I don’t want any of that. I have a nice staff, but no one tells me what to say.”
The reality is that none of the Republican contenders has yet to pay a pollster anywhere near that much, although Hillary Clinton’s polling disbursements in 2015 come close.
In fact, the Republican candidates have spent relatively little so far on polling, according to filings by their campaign and Super PAC committees
made available by the Federal Election Commission. Among the Republican pollsters, the leader in receipts of polling disbursements so far is the firm Wilson Perkins Allen for the Ted Cruz campaign ($165,963), followed by Fabrizio, Lee & Associates for Rand Paul ($114,500) and Hill Research Consultants for Jeb Bush’s campaign and super PAC ($83,235). HuffPollster found smaller disbursements by a handful of other Republican campaigns, but none so far for the campaigns of Scott Walker and Marco Rubio, among others.
