On Sunday morning, Shelby told host Jake Tapper on CNN’s “State of the Union” that he did not vote for Moore over concerns about the allegations of sexual misconduct leveled against Moore.

The robocall, expected to be aired statewide on Monday, will take advantage of the Republican senator’s remarks, according to CNN.

Jones’s campaign is already utilizing excerpts from Shelby’s critical comments in two 15-second digital advertisements. ADVERTISEMENT One excerpt used in a digital ad includes Shelby telling CNN that there have been “so many accusations, so many cuts, so many drip, drip, drip.” “When it got to the 14-year-old’s story, that was enough for me. I said, ‘I can’t vote for Roy Moore,’ ” the excerpt continued. In the other ad, Shelby says he chose to support a write-in candidate, adding that the Republican party “can do better.” Last month, multiple women accused Moore of making advances toward them when they were teenagers and he was in his 30s. One woman said Moore initiated a sexual encounter with her when she was 14 years old, which Shelby refers to in his CNN interview.

President Trump earlier this month backed Moore, who has denied the allegations of wrongdoing, saying the GOP candidate will be a key vote to support his administration’s agenda in an upper chamber that is narrowly controlled by Republicans.

The public boost of support from the president led key campaign groups like the Republican National Committee to reinstate their financial support of the candidate, after initially withdrawing it amid the sexual misconduct allegations. 

Other prominent Republicans who had asked him to step aside have remained steadfast that he should not be elected.

Former GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney said last week that if Moore wins it would be “a stain on the GOP and on the nation.”
