It's a nail bitter. Hopefully it will turn to Roy Moore.

[TrueFact]

Fox called for Jones. Drudge red siren for Jones winning. Sad.

[Joe Dallas]

More Moore votes will come in and Roy will win!

[GreyFriar]

Fox just said Jones has won. And Jones’ percentage of the vote has exceeded Moore’s for the first time tonight. .7%

[Lopeover]

Recount.

[Vigilanteman]

The Slimes just called it for Jones. He has a 1% lead with 92% of the vote in. Crap!

It depends on where the uncounted votes are.Could they be votes by welfare parasites in the big cities or folks in more rural areas.IMO it’s more likely rural areas because big cities have better resources....

[FrankR]

I doubt it will turn, unfortunately...I’ve been watching it live all evening, and about the only precincts left are all blue areas.

The “write-ins” cost the election for Moore. I’m assuming most of them were red staters, but, bought into the “harassment” thing and wrote in someone else. they would have put Moore over the top.

Get ready for the dem/media gloat...Drudge is already gloating, with the flashing red light up...first time in a long time. I’m done with Drudge.

[Sparticus]

Regardless of the outcome, the fact that they were able to damage Moore so effectively means that the media will now aim the sexual assault narrative at Trump. Get ready for them to trot out a dozen or more women claiming that Trump molested them somehow.

The Alabama Sec of State, who’s a Moore supporter, just said if Jones ends up winning by .5% it automatically generates a recount. He also said that if Moore thinks there was fraud involved Moore can request a recount. If Moore requests a recount he’ll get it.

[Robert DeLong]

They will not succeed on that one.
