Excerpts from article:
...Jeff Sessions, former U.S. attorney general and former senator, has taken a commanding 21-point lead over the rest of the GOP field a little over a month ahead of the Alabama primary, a poll obtained by Breitbart News exclusively shows.
..."They want a pro-Trump conservative who will never capitulate to the Washington, DC, establishment, and they know that is Jeff Sessions. He's a national leader on fighting illegal immigration and fighting against the left's desire to destroy our religious freedom. The Democrats know that Jeff Sessions will defeat Doug Jones."
...Only a few House Republicans had endorsed Trump, an outsider in GOP politics, before Sessions' game-changing endorsement helped the now president begin to wrap up the nomination and win over the GOP. Sessions later served as Trump's attorney general, but his old seat in a special election fell to Democrat Sen. Doug Jones due in large part to problems with the appointed now former Sen. Luther Strange and more significantly issues with the 2017 special election GOP nominee former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore.
...President Trump last week tweeted a poll conducted right after Sessions joined the race that showed Sessions in the lead over Tuberville by 4 points-Sessions at 35 and Tuberville at 31-while Byrne was down at 12 percent.
...Tuberville has 22 percent who view him very favorably, 28 percent who view him somewhat favorably, ten percent somewhat unfavorably, and eight percent very unfavorably-meaning he has 22 percent less Alabama GOP primary voters who have a favorable opinion of him than Sessions.
