Poll: 37 percent of Alabama evangelicals more likely to vote for Moore after allegations

Source: The Hill

Nearly 40 percent of Alabama evangelicals said in a new poll that they are more likely to vote for GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore following allegations of sexual misconduct against him.

A JMC analytics poll found that 37 percent of evangelicals surveyed said the allegations make them more likely to vote for the GOP Senate candidate in the upcoming election.

Just 28 percent said the allegations made them less likely to vote for Moore and 34 percent said the allegations made no difference in their decision.

In all, 29 percent of respondents in the poll said the allegations against Moore would make them more likely to vote for him, compared to 38 percent overall who said the allegations would make them less likely to vote for the candidate.

Who knew that pedophilia had such a large and strong constituency? If they found kiddie porn on his computer, I bet Roy Moore would open up a 20 point lead.

Play our golf courses.
Hunt our forests.
Fish our streams.
Sun on our beaches.
Molest our children.

I'm sure there's a tourist constituency among faux-Christian right winger Evangelicals everywhere.....

Any right wing nut job who loses 28% of the evangelicals has a big problem, I'd think.

Those evangelicals were going to vote for him no matter what, so they just made up an answer to a stupid poll question. There were never NOT going to vote for him, so they're not really MORE likely. The real result here is that him being a creepy sex predator hasn't changed their mind.

Their brains are rotten. Their morals are bankrupt. Their religion is just a cult. Before you say that there are some good Evangelicals, I have to interrupt and say I don't give a damn. Screw them and their nihilistic dogma.

100% of Evangelicals were going to vote for him anyway. These people are just trying to skew a poll by saying they are more likely.
