This is a B/C rated pollster, per 538. Jones obviously remains the underdog in this race, but I'll take any & all optimism that I can get from AL.
New polls start out with the B/C rating until there are enough of them to label an accurate rating. It's done this way so it gives them slightly below-average weighting in their model or whatev.
So it doesn't mean it's a crap poll or anything.
I'd also caution on writing off internal polls. There are so damn many of them nowadays done by reputable sources that it's almost impractical to not consider them along with other "legitimate" pollsters.
