Alabama votes on Tuesday in a special election to fill the Senate seat vacated by Jeff Sessions, now the attorney general. The last polls close at 8 p.m. Eastern. Strong support for Roy S. Moore, the Republican, is expected in rural, mostly white parts of the state and in its northern half. The Democrat, Doug Jones, aims to create a lead in the urban counties that include Birmingham and Montgomery, and across a band of largely black counties.
One critical battleground is a trio of smaller, whiter cities: Mobile, Tuscaloosa and Huntsville. Mr. Moore won a hard race in 2012 by keeping things close there. Mr. Jones hopes to win the cities by a convincing margin.

Moore +4,000 (4%) with 85% in
Moore 49.5 - 49.0 with 85% in.
Fraud is coming.
An honest election, areas are equally counted.
A fraud election, votes are held back, to first count the cheat margin.
Then the vote fraud wins at 50.1% to hide the cheat.
ELECTION FRAUD ... Jones is stealing this.
I don’t think so.
Well, then the GOP had better learn how to market.
Hint, the tax hike isn’t helping.
And you think the next GOP Senate Candidate in Alabama will not
