Here’s a link to Moore-Jones polling data. There was one poll in September that had Roy Moore up by 22.

There are always those push polls from the campaigns that are really about motivating voters to support a candidate, but the scientific polls were much different. That one +22 poll was an early outlier.

I don't consider "realclearpolitics" to be an accurate non-partisan source. My general rule is that anything coming from them should be automatically discounted.

I have messages on another website in which we discussed the polling data several months ago, and I can probably find out what the source was if I go over there and look at my past messages, but I am loath to participate further on that website, and I don't want to go to the bother of searching through hundreds of messages to find it.

I believe i've seen similar poll numbers here on Free Republic several months ago, but again, it would require searching through a hell of a lot of crap to find them.

If I run across them, i'll grab a link, but i'm not going to make any special effort. 22% is good enough to serve the same point that the 28% serves, and that is to demonstrate that Moore was way ahead before the accusations were thrown into the media propaganda machine.
