8 days to go, and his lead apparently has increased if the polls are to be believed, but I'm not necessarily falling for them, as stated yesterday.

Commanding Lead: GOP Judge Roy Moore Storms out to Nine-Point Lead over Radical Democrat Doug Jones
A new Emerson Poll released on Monday shows that conservative Republican Roy Moore has increased his lead over liberal Democrat Doug Jones to 9 points, 53 percent to 44 percent, in tomorrow’s special election for the Alabama’s U.S. Senate seat once held by current Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
Write-in candidate Lee Busby has the support of 4 percent of poll respondents.
The poll results were announced in this tweet early Monday morning:

The poll of 600 very likely voters was conducted between December 7 and December 9 and has a 3.9 percent margin of error.
“A major event that might have contributed to Moore’s improved poll numbers is his endorsement by President Trump this past weekend. The President is more popular than either candidate with a 55%/40% favorable/unfavorable rating. Moore is at 45%/45% and Jones is at 43%/45%,” the Emerson College Polling Society said in a press release on Monday.
“Since the Emerson Poll of Nov. 12, a few days after allegations of sexual misconduct, Moore’s lead dropped from 10 points to 6 points Nov. 26 and to 3 points last week on Dec. 3,” the press release noted.
“What we’ve noticed is Moore’s favorabilities have really risen over the past three weeks,” Emerson College professor and polling director Spencer Kimball said in a podcast on Monday.
“Most likely it is this Trump endorsement. Trump is very favorable in Alabama . .. He carries some coattails. I would most likely give that the reason why Moore has been able to extend his lead up to 9,” the Emerson College professor said.
