Two new Alabama Senate race polls released this week have Republican Roy Moore holding an edge on Democrat Doug Jones exactly two weeks before voters go to the polls.

The pollsters said the results indicate Moore is overcoming the allegations made against him earlier this month from women who said the former Alabama chief justice made unwanted romantic or sexual overtures when they were teens in the 1970s.

Moore has repeatedly denied the allegations.

In a Change Research poll released Monday, Moore had 47 percent support to Jones' 42 percent. Another 7 percent said they were undecided while 4 percent said they planned to cast a write-in vote. Change said it estimated a 2 percent increase of support for each candidate based on responses by undecideds on which way they are leaning, giving Moore a 49-44 advantage.

That's a reversal to a Change poll conducted less than two weeks ago that had Jones with a three-point lead after the allegations were made against Moore.

An Emerson College poll, of which partial data was released Tuesday in a podcast, had Moore leading with 53 percent of the vote to Jones' 47 percent. Earlier this month, an Emerson poll put Moore ahead by 10 points. The poll was conducted Saturday through Monday.

The Change poll sampled 1,868 registered voters, of which 88.5 percent said they would "definitely" vote in the Dec. 12 election while another 5 percent said they would "probably" vote. The poll, conducted Sunday and Monday, has a margin of error of 2.3 percent.

President Trump got support in the Change poll. The poll was asked how they would rate Trump's performance so far on a scale of 1 to 10 (with 1 being the worst), 47 percent gave Trump an 8, 9 or a 10 while 32 percent gave him a 1.

Still, Trump's support of Moore - albeit not a full-throated endorsement - had no effect on 95 percent of those surveyed.

The Change poll also asked participants about the impact of an AL.com editorial endorsing Jones. The endorsement had no effect on 96.5 percent of those surveyed while 3 percent said the endorsement either influenced them to vote for or consider voting for Jones.

Spencer Kimball, a professor at Emerson and a pollster for the college, said that 57 percent of undecided voters were leaning toward Moore. Kimball interpreted that as "suggesting these allegations aren't going to be detrimental to the extent that many people thought it would be considering what the news was for the last couple of weeks. You also start to see the pro-life group and the evangelicals, they are still breaking for Moore nearly 3 to 1. He still has that base of support to lean on."

While Jones trails Moore, there were still some hopeful signs for Jones in the Emerson poll.

Kimball pointed out that in the college's last poll on the Alabama race earlier this month, Moore led by 10 points. He said that Moore's unfavorable rating had risen by 11 points since the last poll while Jones' favorable rating had risen by 14 points.

"Things are moving in Jones' direction, away from Moore," Kimball said in the podcast.

He said Emerson would put another poll in the field later this week to help assess whether the electorate is shifting toward Jones or if Moore has held his lead.

More details on the Emerson poll will be released Wednesday.
