Odds favor Moore, or do they?

A new Strategy Research poll in Alabama finds Roy Moore (R) leading Doug Jones by seven points in next week’s U.S. Senate special election, 50% to 43%.

Moore has led by an average of 3 percentage points in polls taken within 21 days of the Dec. 12 special Senate election in Alabama. The betting markets give Moore about an 80 percent chance of victory — roughly the same chance they gave Hillary Clinton just before the 2016 presidential election.
