Alabama Megathread 3: Results Thread

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).

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.

[Holy Unifying Centrist]

The elitist and derogatory rhetoric you people are taking is the reason this election is even close... Democrats need to wake up and realize that elitism may work in Seattle but it doesn't work in Montgomery....

the gop is clearly the elitist party policywise.

people realize this, they just don't care.

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.

If you vote for a pedophile, you’re deplorable and deserve to be shamed.

[MAINEiac4434]

At this point I’m assuming anyone who votes for Moore should have their hard drive looked at by the FBI.

That's highly unethical.

Naturally you’d be against this, Mr. Child Porn Should Be Legal

Why doesn't the RCP average include any polls from change research? They are no less legit than gravis or traflgar.

Are they the idiots who did a poll in one afternoon?

Reword that to Alabama, they are doing just fine in Montgomery...

How is trash talking voters who support an alleged pedophile elitist and derogatory?

[7,052,770]

There's no evidence to support the idea that Moore will be expelled. Anyone who uses that as a justification to vote Moore is either delusional, hasn't paid any attention, or just using that as an excuse because they're embarrassed to vote for a molester.

You realize the lower and middle classes (even among whites) vote in Democratic in Seattle?

HE IS NOT A PEDOPHILE!!!

I bet some Jones supporters are using this language in Alabama.  I bet it is boomeranging. That may be why the polls are going the way they are.

A challenge for y'all tonight:

Convince me that moore will not be akin'd on election night. Convince me that this will not be a missouri 2012 redux.

Because the polls then had it a tossup, and she outperformed by like 14 points.

Why is this different?

Far, far more Democrats in Missouri pre-Ferguson than Alabama.

I said alleged pedophile, which he is. He has been alleged to be a pedophile. No one can prove he is or isn't right now, that's what alleged means. Even voting for an alleged pedophile is awful and should be treated as such, in my opinion.

Another article (from NBC) about concerns over Black voter turnout: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/amp/jones-needs-black-voters-beat-moore-alabama-try-telling-them-n827846

White journalists flying in to interrogate them over the election probably isn't helping, tbh

I get it. Many of these people have dealt with racism and racists their entire life. Telling them to get out and vote Jones because he isn't racist, isn't exactly the most exciting pitch. What is he going to do for them? And the fact that he has to tiptoe around their issues so he doesn't trigger white voters he needs. It is a precarious position that I do not envy.

"Hurr Durr Northam isn't turning out minorities"

It's a recurring theme and I hate it. It puts undue pressure on non-white voters, imo, and if the result is unfavorable (like the 2016 presidential), then there are articles asking WHY non-white voters didn't turn out enough.
