Roy Moore, Faith Leaders Say GOP Establishment Is Behind Allegations
Pastors and faith leaders from around the country stood with embattled GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore in Birmingham Thursday castigating the media and denying charges of Moore’s sexual misconduct decades ago.
They said the accusations are an attempt to keep God-fearing representatives out of Congress.
Moore called out establishment Republicans, saying they are behind the effort to take him out of the race.
“This is an effort by Mitch McConnell and his cronies to steal the election from the people of Alabama, and they’re not going to stand for it,” Moore said.
Moore had agreed to take questions from reporters, provided they were not about the sexual misconduct allegations. He and his wife Kayla left abruptly when reporters asked if he had touched girls.
Outside of the meeting room, several of his supporters argued with national media over their questions.
Moore faces Democrat Doug Jones in a special election Dec. 12 to fill the seat left vacant when Jeff Sessions became Attorney General.
