    8,000 votes separate them with 98.9 counted.

    Although it's unlikely, well, most of those votes are in the county with Birmingham. And Birmingham, or Jefferson County, is 70/30 Jones. It's possible, unlikely but possible, that there are Moore precincts left. I mean, Jones currently is up by 71K in Jefferson County. If there are Moore precincts still out in Jefferson County - counties that are similar to the counties to the North and East, he could make up the margin. Again, it's not likely, but if the precincts that are out are just like the county to the north or the county to the east, he could make up 8K votes.

    Yeah, it'll now become a "go to" tactic. Count on it.

    I'm going to be filing to run in a few weeks. Hopefully since I'm just running for representative on a small scale I won't face those kinds of allegations. It's pretty scary that so many people believe allegations that aren't backed up by any evidence at all.

    There were 14K votes in Dallas County. There is a population of 41K in Dallas County. It doesn't seem out of the ordinary, based on that.

    So, as parocks said:

    "there were 14K votes in Dallas County. There is a population of 41K in Dallas County. It doesn't seem out of the ordinary, based on that"

    Do you now agree...? Because you were claiming vote fraud a few minutes ago.

    Bad omen. Which one played bigger role in this GOP defeat, Trump's Israel embassy call or Ivanka's child rights call? Or was it something else like Flynn/Kushner scandals?
    Assuming following are not fakenews.

    Chris Matthews: Trump Is Moving Capital To Jerusalem For Roy Moore

    “And a couple more points about this. Don’t think this isn’t related to Alabama next week. It is related. It is the Christian evangelicals down there with their crazy ideas about Israel, which is, I don’t know, mythical,” Matthews stated.

    Ivanka Trump: 'Special Place in Hell for People Who Prey on Children'

    insider.foxnews.com/.../ivanka-trump-reacts-roy-moore-special-place-hell-people-pre...
    Nov 15, 2017 - At a public appearance in South Jersey, Ivanka Trump spoke to the Associated Press about the sexual misconduct allegations against Judge Roy Moore (R-Ala.).
    there was some sort of sex thing. Moore was accused without any proof of trying to have sex with 14 year old and failing 40 years ago. They apparently talk about it a lot on TV. And polls were inaccurate.

    There's a general overwhelming context of sex stuff, Franken, Conyers, etc. and all the Hollywood stuff. That's basically it, voters said "not that right now, thanks".

    Which means that Trump has to arrest all the Pizzagaters. What is the statute of limitations on rapes? Can Bill Clinton be arrested? He's got rape victims showing up to events, they'd love to testify.

    For an automatic recount, the margin of victory must be less than one half of one percent. Moore not conceding yet- will decide on asking for a recount tomorrow. I believe absentee ballots are not counted yet either. (May be counted but not included- they were due in five days ago).

    One down, one to go (any one will do).

    50-50 (Rand as the deciding vote).

    ..If you're in an extreme minority, can't pass anything, what you want is a stupid Dem, who will vote against everything the GOP does.

    Dig it?

    Mitch: "You got to vote for it."
    Rand: "Get $#@!ed."

    It will be fun watching the explosion if the absentee vote turns this into a "Dewey Wins" moment.

    If only. But he needs 21K more without Jones getting any. For practical purposes it's over but considering what they've put him through I hope he fights it to the end.

    They scared the darkies into a frenzy with their typical lowbrow tactics. Dez gona bing back savery! I'm sorry to say that the Jewish bankers have institutionalized slavery, irrespective of color. ROFL

    This minority upswing reminds me of the open primary debacle that propelled the nearly comatose Thad Cochrane over McDaniel.

    Looks like the absentee ballots were actually the first numbers reported and are in the final account. http://www.fox10tv.com/story/3705334...-mobile-county

    Or maybe not. http://www.cnn.com/2017/12/12/politi...est/index.html

    However, there are still votes to be counted, including absentee and military ballots.
    Jones ahead by about 22,000 votes.

    Info based on exit polls for who turned out:

    http://www.readingeagle.com/ap/artic...late=mobileart

    Early exit polls - which can be wrong - have shown some encouraging signs for Jones, the Democrat.

    Jones, for instance, needed strong turnout from African-American voters; in early exit polls, it appeared that black turnout might be slightly higher than the levels in 2012 and 2008, when Barack Obama was on the ballot. African-Americans made up 28 percent of the electorate in 2008, and 29 percent in 2012. In this election, they make up about 3 in 10 Alabama voters so far on Election Day according to preliminary exit polls.

    By contrast, white evangelical voters seemed to make up a smaller percentage of the electorate this year than they had in past elections. That group made up just over 4 in 10 voters this year, compared with 47 percent of the state's electorate in both 2012 and 2008 presidential elections, according to Alabama exit polls.

    "They're coming out," said Kim Payton, a city councilwoman in the town of Hayneville, Alabama - meaning black voters. Hayneville is located in the state's "black belt" - rural area named for its dark soils, which also has a strong contingent of African American voters.
    Other exit polls seemed to indicate that this electorate would be different than the one that came to the polls in November 2016. Trump, for instance, won Alabama with 62 percent of the vote in 2016. But preliminary exit polls Tuesday found that just under half of Alabamians approve of Trump's performance, while about an identical share disapprove. About 4 in 10 voters say they "strongly disapprove" of Trump, compared with just over 3 in 10 who "strongly approve."

    Another hopeful sign for Jones: more Alabama voters identified as liberal in preliminary exit polls than they had in either the 2008 or 2012 presidential elections in the state. Almost a quarter of special election voters call themselves liberal, higher than 16 percent in presidential election exit polls in 2012 election and 12 percent in the 2008 election, the two most recent years where data are available.
