650,000 people supported a man who did not support the constitution. He did not think that women or blacks should be able to vote. He thought it should be illegal just to be gay. He thought the last time "America was great" was when we had slavery. What a wonderful person.
And... his supporters are whining about a recount. Let's recount the brain cells that they have collectively. It won't go beyond about 100.
So in other words, he found a way to spin this into "See, I'm never wrong, look how smart I am, I stay winning.."... even though he was wrong and he lost.
They also missed all the dogs and cats who didn't get to vote. What was it that you guys always say ? Oh, yeah, "He lost, get over it !"
And a whole bunch of other things such as "awww, are your feelings hurt?" etc. Those on the right really aren't going to like 2018 and 2020. Trump and crew really have the Democrats energized. And we had won the popular vote by several million in 2016 with the weakest candidate we had run in at least thirty years. We won in Virginia last month. And now Alabama.
They are not going to count the overseas military ballots in Alabama.
They made sure to count, "the felons in prison" vote. First time felons could vote in Alabama for the first time, but the Democrat voting block in Alabama gained no vote totals. Totals lower than Sessions opponent. She had over 750,000 votes. Jones 675,000.
1.9 million people went to the ballots yesterday in Alabama.
Lets add.
Jones 675,000
Moore650,000
= 1,325,000
Where are the rest of the ballots.
Where did you get your facts? Neither sound right to me.
1) They are not going to count the overseas vote.
2) 1.9 million voted but only 1,325,000 counted

Where are you getting the 1.9 million from? That isn't what the State site claims.

And you the part about underage girls. Yes it is a shame that so many people would rather vote for a man such as this just to keep their Senate majority from going from two to one.

Where in the heck were those 700,000 Republicans?
Thanks alot
Not in five key counties, that's for sure.
In addition to Jefferson Co (Birmingham) and the central "Black Belt", Five Key counties also went for Jones
*The University Counties (Tuscaloosa Co, Univ of Ala; Lee Co, Auburn Univ) - apparently the white under-30 crowd doesn't like Moore that much.
*Madison Co. (Huntsville, Aerospace and high-end NASA facilities. 2nd most four-year-degreed county in the state)
*Shelby Co. (suburb of Birmingham, the most four-year-degreed county in the state). A fortress of Republican support. Support for major republican offices recently as high as 80%. And Moore got only 56 this time around?? Granted, that's still a win, but this low? That's GOTTA hurt!
*Mobile Co. (Mobile) - more ethnically diverse than other AL counties. 5.2% neither black nor white, and 34% black, 60% white. Plus, Mobile is a little bit more looser culturally than most of AL (this is getting fairly close to New Orleans, and in fact was founded by the French. It even has an older Mardi Gras than New Orleans!)

Home, for a crucial number of they, yes
Hiding their heads in shame? Yes, especially those who voted for Nick Saban (Bama's Head Coach) instead of Moore, yet couldn't vote for Jones.
Unwilling to endorse a candidate who needs to ask his date's mothers for permission? Ditto.
Sounds about right to me. I'm sure that's the case even for a good number of small town and rural whites.
