AL-SEN: It’s Tuberville

Roy Moore announcement on Thursday - https://www.cnn.com/2019/06/18/politics/roy-moore-senate-run-2020-alabama/index.html

LoL... this dude never goes away, right? Probably the AL GOP is stupid enough to nominate him again.

He'll definitely make it to the runoff, but I have trouble seeing him winning it.

[DaWN]

You know, Moore might actually be a Democrat trying to make Republicans look as bad as possible and trying to win Democrats races by being an absurd caricature of a terrible Republican candidate.

Then again, probably not. I will say that the AL GOP turning a sure thing into a real race would be so hilariously unsurprising. Nobody kid themselves though, Moore could definitely win, it would be close either way.

[ElectionsGuy]

I would like to see a poll of head to head matchups between Jones and all the Republicans. I wouldn't even be that surprised if Moore doesn't do much worse than the others.

Yeah, the thing that many people don't understand is that very few republican voters went for Jones in 2017, republican voters who didn't like Moore simply stayed at home

Basically this


Likely R with Moore
Safe R without


Let's not forget this is Alabama, and there are a decent amount of deplorables, who will back Moore, and then there are the straight ticket R voters, special election turnout is always weird, Jones should be dead in the water with a GE electorate.

Yes - Jones in victory received less votes than Hillary Clinton in two-to-one defeat.

This is a Tossup at best for Republicans with Moore, but Lean/Likely R without Moore. You’d think Republicans would have learned not to make overconfident predictions after one humiliating loss after another in red states, but apparently not. Can’t say I’m surprised.

This is a Tossup at worst for Republicans with Moore, but Titanium R without Moore.

[Continential]

This is a Tossup at worst for Republicans with Moore, but Safe R with Bryne.

[HarrisonL]

Again, people that underestimate the effects of Polarization are misguided and stuck in 2006. Moore, or any Republican, would defeat Jones in a Presidential Year, for the same reasons Gardner will be unseated in 2020.

Last time they had a humiliating loss in a red state was in 2012 and even then IN is not AL.

Failing to unseat Manchin last year is a pretty humiliating defeat

[Rookie Yinzer]

I want Roy Moore to win the primary just to see how far he runs behind Donald Trump in this extremely polarized climate (he will win the election).

Failing to unseat Manchin last year is a pretty humiliating defeat

Not even close , Manchin is pretty popular in the state and the seat was considered Lean D by almost every outlet

Not even close , Manchin is pretty popular in the state and the seat was considered Lean D by almost every outlet

1. Trump had a approval rate of 65% in this state
2. Only 50% of voters had a favourable opinion of Joe Manchin, the problem is that Morrissey had a favorability rate of only 37%

Manchin would have lost against Jenkins and the fact that republicans lost this very winnable race just because they nominated a pharmaceutical lobbyist is very humiliating in my opinion

It isn’t humiliating, like losing IN in 2012 was though or even losing NV was in 2010 . Also 50% on Election Day is good and at the very least will mean it will be close .

Manchin was considered the favorite throughout the cycle , even at this point of the 2018 cycle .

Live picture from the AL GOP:

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Moore may as well claim he's running for reelection, since he never conceded his defeat.

[junior chįmp]

Moore, Moore, Moore
How do you like me? How do you like me?
Moore, Moore, Moore
Why don't you like me? Nobody likes me

[Xing]

Republicans: Yeah, Moore might be a pedophile and a sexual predator, but Jones has a (D) next to his name and D bad.

Get ready for Senator Moore, folks. We got a three year reprieve, but now our time has come.

A 50% favorability rate is not great for a guy who once was reelected with more than 60% of the vote

Yeah we know, that’s what you said in 2017...

Last time they had a humiliating loss in a red state was in 2012 and even then IN is not AL.

WV-SEN 2018 should have never been lost, AL-SEN 2017 should have never been lost, KS-SEN 2014/MO-SEN 2016/MO-SEN 2018 shouldn’t have been close, MT-SEN 2018/OH-SEN 2018 should have been more competitive, etc.

Can this man, just go away already

[Frenchrepublican]

I HATE MOORE !

BECAUSE OF YOU, DIRTY ROY, ALABAMA HAS A DEMOCRATIC SENATOR !! GO F**K YOURSELF STUPID ASHOLE
