We will probably be seeing a Sessions vs Tumorville runoff, and I look forward to doing everything I can to stop Florida Tommy from getting Alabama's senate seat.

Part of me wants Tubby to win the primary so 70% of the state feels that instinctive impulse to vote for the other guy.

But my realistic side realizes that it would likely result in that sh**thead winning our US Senate seat.  Six years of Tuberville in the news might be worse than another four of that fat orange coward with neurosyphilis.

The runoff is only open to folks who voted in the initial GOP primary, correct?

AFAIK, yes. And the primary runoff is the defacto general election; there isn't a candidate in the race (including Moore) who wouldn't beat Jones this time around.

My understanding is that it's only illegal to vote in the GOP runoff if you voted in a first round primary that wasn't the GOP primary. If you didn't vote in the initial primary, you're allowed to vote in the runoff in any party of choice. The 2017 runoff had more votes than the first round so presumably the non-first round voters were not barred from voting in the runoff.

Well, if I had to choose I would probably pick Jeff Sessions, as his relationship with Trump isn't the best and in an ideal world we would get another GOP senator with independent thought.

But that's an iffy bet at best and he would have the highest chance of taking down Jones, so... ._.

I'm still undecided, but definitely don't want Tuberville.

he seems more 1. moderate on the issues and 2. Sessions wouldnt vote to impeach Trump either so on the issue of Trump bootlicker they seem the same

1) He doesn't seem to be more moderate, imo. Tuberville is playing arch-conservative evangelical identity politics. Sessions is more right-wing on immigration, but is significantly more moderate in rhetoric and style (which you seem to care about above ideology).
2) Pack your bags and leave the GOP. Don't look back.

1. No I dont , Trump is an exception to that rule for obvious reasons

2. Mitt Romney is a Republican and if you kick him out , I am sure he will run third party to make sure Trump loses . So careful what you wish for

Why Sessions over Tuberville? Doesn't Tuberville support entitlement reform?

Sessions will probably win this primary, and Blanche Doug Jones

The only shot that Jones had was if Moore won, and he doesn't even look he will make the runoff

Safe R, barring a massive Moore surge

The primary is Lean/Likely Sessions

Why do you care? Both are basically guaranteed to beat Jones and would vote exactly the same. The person who holds Doug Jones' seat next year will either be Sessions or Tuberville almost guaranteed. If I had to pick I guess I'd pick Tuberville but I do not really care.

Tuberville is an out-of-touch, out-of-state carpetbagger who jaunted up here out of retirement in Florida to try to snag our senate seat. He's also cozy with open-borders interests and is a strong supporter of increasing the inflow of immigrants and guest workers, and amnesty.
He is running an especially venomous and evil smear-campaign against Sessions, calling him a "traitor" amongst other things. Sessions is easily one of the greatest and most honorable Republican statesmen of our time, and Tuberville is nothing -- he isn't worthy to polish his shoes.
He always comes off as really dumb and cringy, and he's a shameless hack whose sole message is "vote for me because I'll never question Trump." It'd be an embarrassment to be represented by him. I'm not even sure that I would vote for him against Jones.
