Following the annual White House Turkey pardon, President Trump held an impromptu gaggle with the press before his departure to Mar-a-Lago.

When asked if he supported GOP Senate candidate Judge Roy Moore, President Trump responded, “We don’t need a liberal democrat in that seat.”

President Trump wants a Republican representing Alabama in the US Senate.

GOP elites are hoping ultra-liberal Doug Jones wins the special election on December 12th.

How accurate has PredictIt been shown to be on past elections?

I wish I could trust the polls and hype coming out everyday. But, I will channel the wonderful night in 2016 when I watched the Presidential returns come in and pray that it happens that way again! MYGAWD that was euphoric!

It’s almost like President Trump’s word carries some weight. That is unexpected given how the media portrays the greatest president since Ronald Reagan.

“Wow impressive!”

Odds based on betting. Not a voting margin.

Predictit can swing to a heavy favorite even with a very close race.

A lead? Yes. 33 points? I doubt it.

RE: accuracy

I was wondering the same thing. I went to their site and sniffed around but they had nothing to show how their predictions fared. Not a good sign.

Trying to process this. The fact he dated 17 year old does drop him in my estimation. Not the godly man I thought. So I guess I am left with policy. The problem I guess is how other conservatives and swing voters see him knowing this.

If I’m going to go by polls, I’d go with the ones that show them neck to neck at this point.
It’s still 2 weeks until the election and what happens before then will tell the tale.

Moore’s election in 2012 was just a matter of a few points:

Optimism tempered with caution might be a wise route to go on this one.

Louie, what you’re missing out on is the culture of the South.

The majority of voters in Alabama are accustomed to marriages where the woman is 15-20 years younger than her husband. They don’t see anything unusual about what Moore is accused of, whether it is true or not.

Coastal big city democrats know nothing at all about most of America.

>> “ Not the godly man I thought.” <<

You’re confused!

Biblically, the age at which most women married is 13.

Why is he not a “Godly” man?

What are your standards?

I think you replied to the wrong person. I only addressed the numbers people are tossing out, e.g. “Judge Roy Moore Jumps to 33 POINT LEAD”. That one’s out of touch with reality.
