Alabama Certifies Jones Win, Brushing Aside Challenge From Roy Moore

MONTGOMERY, Ala. Alabama officials on Thursday unhesitatingly pushed aside a legal challenge from Roy S. Moore and certified Doug Jones as the winner of this months Senate election.
The action, during a brief meeting at the State Capitol, was essentially the states final step before the seating of the first Democrat elected to the Senate from Alabama in a quarter century. It was also a swift rejection, by some of the states most powerful Republicans, of Mr. Moores complaint that he was the victim of systematic voter fraud.
Mr. Joness margin of victory was 21,924 votes with more than 1.3 million ballots cast.
Sad. How do we prevent this cross state voting in the future?
