I was thinking about this. The only people I can imagine would be an older Republican woman who desperately wanted to see the first female president and a hyper-religious man who is also a racial minority.

Someone who doesn't know much about politics and votes based on name recognition or just randomly. Or someone who wants to screw with the results.

Clinton was scandalous, but Trump was more scandalous.

What about someone who is ultra conservative, but very pro-immigration?  Both decisions may have been tough, but they narrowly went with Hillary and Moore.

There must have been at least one or two, although obviously this is an incredibly small group of voters. Maybe an old white lady who just wanted Hillary to be the first female President but is otherwise very conservative?

My guess is that the majority of people with such "incomprehensible" votes are low information voters with incoherent political views. They're the kinds of people who don't know the name of the Vice President or what party controls Congress, or call themselves "very conservative" but support single-payer healthcare. Most don't vote or pick a "team" to stick with, but a handful probably do vote what seems to be almost randomly.

I can think of 3 groups - the first two very small and the last somewhat larger/

1. Conservative Feminist women who wanted to see a woman in the White House, even if it meant said woman was Hillary Clinton.
2. Ultra-Leftists who believed that Republican Senators being forced to live in the mud of Moore was worth more then an extra Democratic vote.
3. Someone who just instinctively votes for perceived winners. Don't underestimate this one, there is a lot of pressure when you are in the voting booth to pick the 'correct' candidate, and the correct candidate to some is the winning one. It can be provide both social and psychological rewards to say/feel like you made the right call along with the nation. Moore was up in the later polls, and its Alabama - a Republican isn't losing Alabama. So these voters vote for Moore if they showed up. In 2016, the mainstream media and polling companies all were calling a Clinton win - it was expected. So these voters pulled the leaver for Clinton.

Old white woman wanting to cast ballot for a woman for President. They knew Clinton had no chance here so no harm in casting a symbolic vote.

Super religious black male turned off by Trump and attracted to Moore's theocracy. Not out of the question since something like 6% of black men voted for Moore.

White conservative male who had voted for Republican for President since Al Gore in 2000. Was a #NeverTrump religious conservative (more religious than conservative) who begrudgingly voted for Hillary because he never votes 3rd party and likes that she's a war hawk.

Likely felt that he didn't benefit under 8 years of Obama but thought that Clinton would be different than him after remembering the 2008 Democrat Primary, whether this is logical or not - but more so that he didn't want to vote for Trump. After he took office he felt Trump's administration wasn't harming him as much as he thought it would - not as much as Obama's did - and switches to Moore because he's not voting Democrat again. Religion also plays a large role here too though.

Democrats who obviously voted for HRC, but who couldn’t believe in a million years that Jones would win, so voted for Moore to fcuk with the Republicans in Congress?

Nah, does seem improbable.
