When Jones has a 21,000-vote lead, when Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill said he can't see how Moore would win, Moore wants to fight. I think he wants to use a last opportunity to squeeze every dime of every possible donation from his cult members and backers. "We need the funds for our legal fight for you and Alabama values."
He's already been caught with his hand in the non-profit cookie jar during this election cycle. Hey, grifters gotta grift!

I'm thinking it's because his political career is over and he doesn't g.a.f. how he looks by not

Moore's "God" hasn't made forty extra voting machines miraculously appear. That happens at 6AM today.

People can be so wedded to their vote. Look how they buy those dumb MAGA hats.

I think he won't concede because he's a jackass.
