The man is delusional. 1.5% loss, 0,5% automatic recall.

Looks like no automatic recount.


"According to Alabama election law, a recount is automatically triggered if the margin is less than or equal to 0.5 percent. The losing candidate could submit a written waiver of the recount." source





https://www.nytimes.com/elections/results/alabama-senate-special-election-roy-moore-doug-jones

All votes have been counted. Mr. Jones leads in that count by 1.6 points.

Doug Jones Democrat 671,151 49.9%
Roy Moore Republican 650,436 48.4
Total Write-Ins — 22,819 1.7

100% reporting (2,220 of 2,220 precincts)


Note how write-ins outnumber the winning margin.

I'm sure lawyers (both local and national) for Jones are already in place because I'm sure they expected this move by Moore in the event of a loss. How could they not?

No way was Moore going quietly and the republican machine within Alabama plays dirty & racist politics. Evidenced by the DMV closures.
