WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Embattled Republican U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore led his Democratic opponent by six percentage points in a CBS News poll released on Sunday, with most Alabama Republicans saying the allegations of sexual misconduct against him are false.
Moore was leading Democrat Doug Jones 49 to 43 percent among voters likely to cast ballots in the Dec. 12 special election, CBS said. The contest was even among registered voters, it said.
Republican lawmakers in Washington, including Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, have distanced themselves from Moore and called for him to step down from the race after he was accused by several women of sexual assault and misconduct when they were teenagers and he was in his early 30s. Reuters has not been able to independently verify the allegations.
But McConnell said on Sunday that if Moore is elected, the Senate will swear him in and then the Senate ethics committee would decide whether to investigate the allegations.
“We’ll swear in whoever’s elected and see where we are at that point,” McConnell said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”

I guess he's not that "embattled," is he.
The effort to destroy him is much more "embattled" than Judge Moore is.
If Moore ia ahead by 7 in a CBS poll, add 5 more points to that
to get the reall number.
Onward to victory Judge Moore.
Roll Tide and Roll Moore!
The little tot set me up!
Yeah embattled by Reuters and all the other lying MSM fake news purveyors.
Exactly.
I will be sending Moore another $100 this week for the final push to victory.
True, probably should read “Ahead EVEN in CBS Poll”
AL Christians certainly can’t vote for Jones, who approves of killing babies on the day they were to be born. This hideous man should not get the votes of decent people.
This is the point where the polls need to look legitimate, so Roy Moore will magically get a boost in this polls. The reality is that Roy Moore was always ahead by at least 5 points.
Good point. Seems as though it’s the propaganda machine that is having the break down.
Embattled only to them, not to us.
Out in front and pulling away
Did CBS run out of demoncraps to poll?
“We’ll swear in whoever’s elected and see where we are at that point,” McConnell said ...
McConnel. Crap weasel extraordinaire.
I like that!
Maybe we can try it on Turtle and Lyin Ryan
If Mitch McConnell really wants to beat Roy Moore, he should go campaign for him.
Not so embattled.
