Ah sure why not sure.

He didn't molest her though.

But what is the rationale behind this move ?

"How can we show our support in the creepiest way possible?"

Showing the allegations should be disregarded, I suppose, but sheesh, take a photo with him instead, same message and 85% less creep.

If Alabama elect a democratic senator I'll get Trumps face tattooed on my ass. It's never going to happen.

Same as the story about the trip to the brothel. to show he doesn't rape all children.

Yeah but don't forget, there are loads of people that he didn't molest.*

*that was actually used as a talking point.

What am I missing here, because that strikes me as them willfully going out of their way to ensure there is little evidence if votes actually are tampered with? Given the Republican party's typical stance on being extremely vigilant on voting and voters (ID, voter fraud claims, etc) that seems very, very... well let's just say 'peculiar'.

That's one way of getting around the federal requirment mentioned in the original article. Saves embarrassing the people on the federal side of the vote issue.

Edit: if the Alabama Sec of State is downplaying the numbers likely to turn up to vote, and with no actual digital record of the vote outcome kept, there is the chance that rigging would be undetectable,,,,,, barring some-one hacking into the systam that Homeland Security thinks easy and download the digital records.

Looks like Moore has somehow done the impossible and lose the safest seat in the land. That's remarkable.

I don't know how anyone can see this as a bad thing, Moore is a disgusting person, and its a timely reminder to the Republican establishment and money men that Steve Bannon is nowhere near as talented politically as he believes. His presence is absolute toxic to the party and cat nip for the left. I know he still brags about winning Trump the white house, but I still feel Trump would have won without him.

Even if Moore had won, he'd have been a fantastic scapegoat for the Dems until he quit politics, and its a nice **** you to the republicans who done sweet **** all to get Moore out of this seemingly impossible election to lose. A generic Republican would likely have won this by 20 or so points, that's how repugnant Moore was.

Up there with AC Milan losing the champions league final to Liverpool for me this.

Jones wins in Alabama. You can only imagine the Nuclear Ire Trump will be tweeting soon :pac:

A democrat winning in Alabama though, that's incredible. Black turnout was critical, fair play to them.

What a brilliant result.

The downfall of Trump is taking shape

Amazing result for Jones. Despite large amounts of democrat voters having their polling registration being deactivated they still managed to get enough numbers out to beat Moore. This will annoy Trump. First they ignore his first pick for candidate and then they ignore his endorsement of Moore.

Careful, now. Don't get ahead of yourself.

First we have to have the demands for a recount.

Then we have to have the claims that Moore really won a majority of the popular vote.

After that comes four years of investigations into allegations of fraudulent voter registration. Don't you know that Alabama is right next to Mississippi, which is right next to Louisiana, which is right next to Texas, which is right next to Mexico, which contains brown people? So obviously the place is overrun with illegal immigrants, whose sole purpose in coming to the United States (after rape and terrorism) is to register so they can cast votes for Democratic candidates. We need a Wall! All elections [that the Democrats win] should be annulled until after the Wall is constructed!

I think his account has been hacked...

The scary thing is that there was only 1.5% of a margin IIRC. Moore still nearly won. A man with a record of homophobia and attraction to underage girls was still nearly deemed suitable and was supported in nearly equal numbers to the winner. It’s a sad inditement on the state of Alabama and the US

Light at the end of the Trumpet.
