The special Alabama Senate primary is at once the most exciting and the most boring spectacle in politics. Depending on who’s keeping score, the contest between Judge Roy Moore and incumbent Sen. Luther Strange will be either blowout or barnburner, slaughter or slugfest.

New polling from Montgomery-based Southeast Research suggests the latter. With 19 days before Election Day, according to the poll, Strange is trailing Moore by 16 points: 52 to 36 percent.
