Alabama votes on Tuesday in a special election to fill the Senate seat vacated by Jeff Sessions, now the attorney general. The last polls close at 8 p.m. Eastern. Strong support for Roy S. Moore, the Republican, is expected in rural, mostly white parts of the state and in its northern half. The Democrat, Doug Jones, aims to create a lead in the urban counties that include Birmingham and Montgomery, and across a band of largely black counties.
One critical battleground is a trio of smaller, whiter cities: Mobile, Tuscaloosa and Huntsville. Mr. Moore won a hard race in 2012 by keeping things close there. Mr. Jones hopes to win the cities by a convincing margin.

Some of the Counties need to be checked for voter fraud IE: Etowah County 839-24 Jones with one write in????? Looks like a vote out of Philly.

This does remind me of last year’s presidential election.
Hillary jumped out to an early lead in swing states and then the rest of the votes came in and you could see the election turning toward Trump.

Oh man, I might have to do something I NEVER do. Turn on CNN to see a sad Wolf Blitzer. That might just be worth it.

On election night Wolf Blitzer begged John King for some “good news for Hillary.”. King told him there was none.
