ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) U.S. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell said there was deep concern about allegations of sexual misconduct against U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore and that he was looking options to prevent him from taking office. McConnell said President Donald Trump called him on Friday and the two discussed Moore and he spoke to Vice President Mike Pence on Monday. "There is no question that there is a deep concern here.

"He's obviously not fit to be in the United States Senate and we've looked at all the options to try to prevent that from happening."
