They just got too giddy and couldn't keep their mouths shut...

Viral Video Prompts Voter Fraud Investigation of Alabama Senate Election

The Alabama Secretary of State has launched an investigation into voter fraud in the Alabama Senate special election after seeing a viral video of a Democratic Doug Jones supporter seemingly admitting that people from all over the country came to vote for Jones.

In the video, a Fox 10 journalist reporting live asked a jubilant Doug Jones supporter at an election night party why he is excited to see his candidate win.

“Because, we came here all the way from different parts of the country as part of our fellowship, and all of us pitched in to vote and canvas together, and we got our boy elected!” the man responds.

...
Merill noted that there is yet no concrete evidence that voter fraud took place.

We will see what happens... I have no clue. I'm not expecting much to come out of it.

So over 20,000 non residents came to Alabama to vote for Jones? I don’t think a single person from out of state voted, but what might happen is they pull a Florida and disqualify thousands of votes, like the Republicans did there in 2000.

The irony is off the page.

All this video proves is just how contentious this election was. It was a national news story for weeks on end - and people were "pulling" for each candidate from all corners of the country (including from within the WH itself).

It is not surprising to see some supporters from out of state there to celebrate the victory (if you don't think there weren't some out of state supporters there for Moore, too, then you're being naive).


How this is being used as justification for an investigation that is likely going to be a waste of time and money is beyond me.

Oh I am pretty sure a couple out of state people voted. Folks who had not yet had their ID updated,and came back to make a difference. If I had to estimate, I'd guess 20 people. probably split pretty evenly in their votes.

This is just idiocy.

I wouldn’t put anything past the Left. They are so hateful of Trump and republicans that they will do anything.

This is so funny coming from the Left. You should’ve heed your own advice this whole past year.

Did you read my comments?

Every report is a partisan matter to you? This is just facts.
