They don't look good for Doug's chances. One says that they based their determination of who to vote for on their abortion position. Another had "who controls the senate" as the reason they voted the way they did.

Sure as chit Alabama wants a anti-choice anything cuz, you know...the babies, the babies.

(6,974 posts)MANY Alabamians claim to not CARE about Mall Rat Moore being a pedio (They don't like Dems and love fetuses), per Randi Rhodes reading an exit poll a few minutes ago.

DemocratSinceBirth
(99,710 posts)48% is terrible.
BannonsLiver
(16,387 posts)Even rain cloud Kornaki and Chuck Toad said so. Its frankly surprising to me Drumpf isnt at least at 60 percent approval in a state like Alabama.

(3,608 posts)they are taught this hate shit from birth...so no, none of us should be surprised if PedoMoore wins.

(58,785 posts)no matter what.
And, IT'S ABORTION, STUPID. Jones almost certainly would have won Alabama if he was anti-abortion.
I'm not claiming they're all genuinely committed to saving babies above all, because we know large numbers aren't really, but I am claiming that most BELIEVE they are. People who seemingly have abandoned in their political lives almost all principles, all mores, all intellectual considerations, even religion, still believe abortion is their line.

ClarendonDem
(720 posts)Shows how much Moore sucks as a candidate and human being generally.
Hav
(5,969 posts)There aren't many other ways to be even worse. But it's damning that a pedo can actually win.
There's been so much focus on his sexual misbehavior that people forget how awful he is in so many other ways, like wanting to impose his brand of Christian theocracy on all Americans.

(3,194 posts)The repubs do not care about being called pedophiles. They don't care about electing a president who is a P.I.G.
They'll celebrate a win, don't think they won't.
Hortensis
(58,785 posts)if Moore was running as a conservative Democrat? Knowing we'd be called the party of Roy Moore and to some degree having earned it? Knowing how much just one vote shifting from them to us could do for us?
Don't answer. We don't have to answer that one. That's their problem.
LenaBaby61
(6,974 posts)Agree.
We'll be hearing about Crooked Hillary, Fake News, crooked Schumer, Moore denied the woman's allegations, Dems are losers etc.
And whatever ELSE fatso can tweet and crow about tonight.
Hortensis
(58,785 posts)sugar must be low or something. I always keep my fingers crossed to the end.
A Moore win is a problem for Republicans, but I still really want Republicans across the nation to see that Alabama chose a Democrat for senator. Even if it's by 5 votes.

Just spoke with a very well-connected Republican in Alabama who a few days ago was pretty sure Moore would win. He's feeling Jones has a "real shot" based on what he's seeing & hearing.
There was a government official from Alabama on Chuck Todd who just said the same thing. I'll be surprised if Doug wins, but I'm cautiously hoping.

(30,741 posts)Most of them will never have their lives touched by this issue. They will never have to make a personal decision about abortion.
Fuck them all.

Salviati
(6,008 posts)After all, for them the only moral abortion is their own, because they had special circumstances, unlike all the other woman who are getting abortions every weekend for free on the government dime.

(61,695 posts)Exactly what you said, but not as well. I was thinking the same thing.

Yes, I am accusing you of being Russian troll. We must be careful.
Yes, I expect that my post will be banned by the DU jury. I am a frequent juror myself and agree with the process.
Please do accept my apologies if you were just posting because you are upset by the result that you expect.

(3,194 posts)I also can't see it from my front yard.
I'm just a pessimist, and can't fathom why this is even a close race. Recent history shows how repubs somehow manage to win the close races these days.
And yes, I'm a conspiracy theorist, so if goes to the repub in a close race, that is where my mind will go.

(7,286 posts)No link and can't recall the exact numbers but one: 30% of voters African American. The commenter indicated anything over 25 is a good number
Also: favorable/unfavorable opinion of Trump, Jones and Moore gave slight edge to Jones
A favorable number of 48% for Trump regarded as lower than the %age he won the state by. Commenter indicated it should be over 60
