Great work! Interesting to see those swings.

Leigh Corfman got a write-in vote in Etowah County.

Leigh Corfman got a write-in vote in Etowah County.

Whoever did that is a FF.

Etowah had Chuck Norris, Jean Claude Van Damme, and Clint Eastwood. What are the odds that wasn't coordinated?

I'd believe that if there were also votes for Arnold and Stallone.

Interesting side-fact:

There were ca. 5.400 ballots left to count after election day (some 400 military absentees and 5.000 provisional ballots).

About 4.400 of them were counted as valid. Jones won them by 63-35-2, which is why his overall winning margin increased a bit.

There was an election night box in Calhoun that didn't get added until the next day which made the final election night totals 671727  651102  22814

That makes the provisional/overseas 2169 870 38 for a 70-28-1 margin 

The total of 3077 p/o ballots is a little under what the SoS had expected to be reported (2888 Prov and 366 Over) so it's possible/probable that there were some minor corrections made in the election night numbers vs official numbers.

Fox Business contributor: Moore is acting like a snowflake by refusing to concede.

Someone in Madison just wrote 'Your Mom', as well as 'my boi'

Your Mom is wholly unfit for political office, the constant stream of disreputable men flowing into her White House would be a disgrace to the US on the international stage.

I like how these results mostly look random.

I actually appreciate and like Big Luther's farewell speech a lot. He was a pretty bad senator, but I still think that at heart he is a good man, and was actually a fairly good state attorney general. I wish him and his family all the best as they continue on with their lives, and best of luck to Senator Strange in retirement or any other endeavors that he may undertake.

He's a slimy swamp creature, and he has identical views to Moore, he's just not as honest about them.

These are my bros. I am so glad that Jones is tacking to the right and moving centerwards, he is associating himself with the right people to create an image such as JBE and Manchin, and he has also refused to call for Trump's resignation, and says he will not vote with the democratic party on all issues. Very good for reelection.

He also hired a blue dog coalition policy director as his deputy legislative director.

This will not prevent him from losing re-election in the likely case that Republicans nominate someone more sane than Moore.

That's a pretty low bar.  I'm sure the AL GOP can manage it.

Roy Moore's Jewish lawyer voted for Doug Jones, raised money for his campaign

I hardly ever believe "DOA's" and this one is no exception. Lean R for now.
