Conservatives are saying voter fraud is the reason Jones won.

Don't give up just yet..we are talking less than 10k votes...and the Alabama SOS is big on voter fraud....especially on people who change affiliation after voting in primaries...don't give up yet....tomorrow is another day


So lets see how well they do at exposing the massive amount fraudulent voters they always talk about.
Some are also saying that doubling down on Trump and getting rid of all the RINOs will turn things around.

They've sure got their hand on the pulse of America.

Hah!

Voter suppression sure, but not actual ballot changing or ballot stuffing. And yes, that goes for the claims Russia hacked actual votes in 2016 as well.

Do NOT let them make up bullshit about fraud. GOP knows they have to cheat to win because this is a liberal-majority country.

5. Sure it's not the 20,000 write-in votes from R's who refused to vote for Moore ?

That's more than twice Jones' margin of victory, and there's no one to blame for it but Repugs and their candidate.

9. Automatic recount level is 0.5%, which is going to be less than 7000 votes.

The final difference will be greater than 0.5%. They can (will) drag out the certification process, and Turtle could play some games too. But they will not be able to drag it out for very long.
