President Donald Trump will record a robocall for Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore, to be played to voters on Monday — the day before the hotly contested special election, according to news reports Saturday.
Trump's call — disclosed to Politico by "a source close to the Moore campaign" — will mark his first direct involvement in the effort to help Moore defeat Democrat Doug Jones on Tuesday.
Moore, 70, a former Alabama Supreme Court justice, has been accused of sexual misconduct by several women when they were teenagers and he was in his 30s.
He has denied the allegations. Trump endorsed Moore at a rally in Pensacola, Fla., Friday — telling supporters that the nation "cannot afford" to allow the seat to fall to the Democrats.
The president, however, has yet to directly go to Alabama to campaign for Moore, according to Politico.
The robocall will be Trump's second for a GOP candidate in as many months.
He made one for Ed Gillespie in the Virginia governor's race, which the former Republican National Committee chairman lost, Politico reports.
