So that means the current RINO stays in office?

This interference in Alabama’s special senatorial election is one of the most sickening things I’ve seen in a long long time. Let the voters in Alabama decide who they want to elect! It’s nobody else’s d@mn business.

This despicable universal ganging up on Judge Moore with nothing more than 40 year old unsubstantiated allegations is evil, pure evil.

When it comes to elections for Federal office the Feds hold the trump card. Your rules must comply with their rules.

The state cannot nullify millions of votes. It would never pass a court challenge.

Equal protection and all of that.

Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill (R)

The only question I have is what position in the Swamp has Mr. Merrill been promised. Cuz if he pulls this off, he will be movin’ on up in the Establisment Swamp.

If the last plug is pulled on Moore, can DJT fire Sessions, and Sessions can have his Senate seat back? If so, DJT should do that and then nominate a pit bull like Rudy to the AG position.

Moore can them run as an independent ? Southerners, you are still being occupied. It’s called the republican party.It’s hierarchy is made up of carpetbaggers and scalawags. If they do this to Moore. Let’s make sure We target every GOP establishment rino nation wide. McConnell, Ryan, Graham all have to go.

This is elevating a political party to the status of a government organ. It is also making the state government a mere arm of a political party. Whatever description fits best, this fusion of government and party is exactly the same way they did things in the Soviet Union.

I don’t believe “Republican” is written into the State Constitution of Alabama as a prerequisite for election, nor is party “support” for a given candidate. He won the special election, he’ll be on the ballot December 12 unless he withdraws.

If that happens, we should all head down to Alabama and see that things are set right again. The People vote. Not the GOP-E.

Does that mean the ‘will of the people’ will be null and void, as well?

If I were a billionaire and ornery I would set up a billion dollar line of credit for Moore to use as he sees fit to win this Senate seat. And, I wouldn't require repayment in any case.

I would do this because what is happening to him is not fair play or the Attorney General of Alabama trying to nullify his candidacy against the will of the people of Alabama if they vote him in.

Parties have no Constitutional standing. Only candidates do. Where does a Party get off nullifying the citizens' choice in an election?

I’m still going to vote for him, as will my wife and most of our friends.

And now we know why there is nothing but scumbags wall to wall in DC. It’s the only thing the great “Mass Media” will allow to run for office... THEY will chose only the ones that fit their ideals....and that, of course, is a liberal one. Anyone else is mercilessly attacked...

To be elected Senator from Ala, must the winner get a majority of the votes, or just the most votes? It’s a runoff state, where the two top winners of the primary go to the general election. But is there were to be a write in, and Moore and Jones were also on the ballot, chances are that no one would get a majority. What then?

The establishment is telling us their new approach. If an outsider is nominated, he shall not be permitted to run. If he wins the primary, he shall not be permitted to stand for election. If he stands and wins, he shall not be certified. And if he somehow gets certified, he shall not be admitted to the Senate. There are now several layers of “we won’t let another outsider ever win an election” on display.

They didn’t with Trump.
