Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore vowed to drain the swamp if he is elected to office, making his final argument to win over voters in Alabama on Monday night.

“It’s difficult to drain the swamp when you’re up to your neck in alligators,” he said after taking the stage.

Moore cited attacks from all sides, pointing to well-funded opponents from both parties and anonymous political groups who wanted to destroy his reputation.

“We’ve been intimidated, other people have been intimidated, and we’re tired of it,” he said.

Moore cited “fake news” stories and the “terrible disgusting” story from the Washington Post accusing him of pursuing inappropriate relationships with high school-aged girls.

He also questioned the decision by his accusers, just 30 days before his election, to come forward, despite his long political career in Alabama.

Moore also pointed to a Fox News poll reporting that his Democratic opponent, Doug Jones, was ten points ahead when other polls showed Moore with a comfortable lead.

I was certainly glad to read this, from al.com:

Voters need photo ID to cast a ballot.

Donald Trump has weighed in:

The people of Alabama will do the right thing. Doug Jones is Pro-Abortion, weak on Crime, Military and Illegal Immigration, Bad for Gun Owners and Veterans and against the WALL. Jones is a Pelosi/Schumer Puppet. Roy Moore will always vote with us. VOTE ROY MOORE!

“Voters need photo ID to cast a ballot.”..

Just means you need to prove who you are (resident) but does NOT stop you from voting for Jones or Moore.

To rephrase a Tweet just sent by Bernie Sanders:

“Alabama, you have extraordinary power today. By voting for Roy Moore, you can lift a middle finger to the Deep State and non-Alabamans who think they know better than you who is best to represent your state”.
