Here are some swings from Birmingham's suburbs.



Once again, don't show RINO Tom.

Amazing swings for Jones in White Bham suburbs though.

I know this has become a fun meme for you guys and whenever I respond to defend myself, you guys just mock me ... but why would you say "don't show" me?  Do you think I wasn't expecting this?  Or that it upsets me?  LOL, I would hope everyone of all income brackets, geographic aras and ideologies could unite against a pedophile creep with a terrible understanding of our Constitution.  All I said is that I don't think Jones would have performed that well against a Republican who wasn't accused of the same things as Moore ... how on EARTH is that controversial here?

But that wasn't what happened.  Moore actually overperformed his benchmarks through North Alabama and the Wiregrass with rural, working class White voters even though you think these people are Democrats.

Obviously, yes, you are correct that the unique circumstances in this race do not make it especially exportable to other races looking forward.  However, it is a continuation of the trends we saw put into motion last year.

I think I look at the wikipedia entry for Doug Jones twice a day and smile.

I still have the tab with the NYT results page open on my browser. I occasionally scroll down to the projected margin chart.

Me as well to both the two above quotes.

I like thinking about how the return of the Southern Democrat came from Alabama of all places.

On that note, Jones has returned the number of white Congressional Democrats from the Deep South to a grand total of one. The last one was John Barrow.
What about Mark pryor the democrat from arkansas who lost in 2014?

Pryor and Barrow left Congress on the same day.

And Arkansas isn't the Deep South.
