Another pretty good video from Team Jones.
I like it because he seems to somewhat tack to the right on this one(maybe to seem slightly more palatable to anti-Moore Rs), but not in a way that makes him seem phony or like he's trying to out-Republican the Republican(see: Alison Lundergan Grimes).
if only this was played on commercial breaks of trumps speech...

Yeah. The unfortunate part of this video is that it may be too little too late. Not sure if it could really get to anyone or change anyone's minds anymore.
I actually think he should use a ton of his remaining money on this ad, running it in all parts of the state, but not going full Ossoff to the point where its annoying.

Question - will the number of write-ins be reported when the results come in Tuesday? I recall reading that they'll only report write-in numbers if the number is larger than the margin between both candidates, so will we have to wait on that?

We won't know who the write-in votes are for unless they are needed to determine the outcome, but it appears we will know the aggregate number of write-ins, the row is there on the raw AP page: http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/files/elections/2017/by_state/AL_Page_1212.html?SITE=AP&SECTION=POLITICS

Welp, pack it up guys. Looks like Moore won by about 5,000 votes.
lol this is so random.

Listen folks I do not live in Alabama.  I have not been there since the 90s.  My wife has a cousin who lives there.  I have not spoken to him.

If Jones loses, I believe you can pin the loss on Allred. She is the one who has raised the question of veracity so high. In my gut I believe it is possible she wants Moore to win to put the GOP on the spot.  But mostly I think she thinks she is helping. Poor deluded woman.

Stop spitting venom at me in relation to this race.  
youll see

Everyone keeps blabbing about how Alabama deserves better than Moore, but they really don't.

The rest of America does, but not this state.

The Senate writes the laws for all of us.

Moore can't legally ask for a recount if the margin is over 0.5, right?
if under 0.5, it is automatic

He can if he pays for it. He could pay for a recount even if he lost by 20 points.
does he have the cash?
