Alabama Senate Primary tonight. Polls close 8PM. Brooks, Strange, Moore (LIVE THREAD)
Decision Desk HQ ^ | August 15, 2017

Posted on 08/15/2017 4:01:37 PM PDT by SMGFan

Race Preview After weeks of ads, mostly on behalf of incumbent Senator Luther Strange, the votes start rolling in tonight after 8pm EDT. Strange faces strong competition from former Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore, who has led him in the polling average by about 5-6 points, and from Huntsville Congressman Mo Brooks, who has trailed Strange in the average by a little over the same margin. If polling is correct, Strange and Moore will advance to the September 26th runoff. We anticipate the first results will roll in within thirty minutes of polls closing. We’ll have comparison charts and a county-by-county display above as those numbers roll in.

Maybe you could request putting this thread on the sidebar, so others
can easily find it, instead of scrolling thru so many threads to come.

We want him involved here in Arizona against Flake. We want him to support Kelli Ward.

He or she may not.
It will be breaking news all night.
It deserves to be on the sidebar.
At least that is my opinion.

If Roy gets 50+%, and he might- they’re saying very low turnout- FR will go crazy!

Trump and Strange have evidently become friends. I think they have shared meals together. It's a bit bizarre but I still support Trump, strongly of course, I'm not sure what will become of this relationship but evidently the brotherly love is running very strong right now between Trump and Strange.

Strange. We shall see how this all pans out in the end.

I just voted about 45 minutes ago. The poll workers there told me only a 15% turnout.

Pathetic.

Roy Moore is out to early lead. We could see a massive backlash against the leftist goons in Charlottesville. Would that pucker up Krautstammer?

I drove from DC to Alabama to participate in the Keep The Ten Commandments protest. God be with Judge Moore tonight! An uncompromising man of conviction.
