Estimated 10% of registered electorate turn out. Way down from the projected 25% rate. 90% of precincts reporting ...

GOP special election will be a run-off between Roy Moore (~39% approval) and incumbent Luther Strane (~31%). Mo Brooks finished 3rd with ~20% and is out of the running.

Former USDA Doug Jones easily won the 8-horse Democrat primary with ~64%.

Many think Jones will mount a strong and credible challenge to the eventual Republican candidate.

All I can think about right now is the "William F. Buckley Jr. Rule" - vote for the most conservative candidate who can win.
