Nate Silver said:With Jones winning by less than the write-in margin, one wonders whether theres a Trump tweetstorm soon to brew against Alabama Sen. Richard Shelby, who said he couldnt vote for Moore and wrote-in another candidate instead.
He will most likely lose but we have a moral imperative to try to stop Moore.
It's Alabama. God himself could come down from heaven and run for Senate, but if he had a D next to his name, he'd still lose.
Doesn't matter.
Holy shit in the reddest of states!!
Considering Alabama is a red, bible belt bumfuck state of all southern states, this is still considered surprise and a giant loss for the republicans.I am happy that Jones won, but it makes me very sad that the race was this close in the first place. Seriously Roy Moore almost won.
Rough night for the Breitbart losers who have overtaken OT

Still very fucked up that the President of the United States, supported a child rapist.
That one is for the record books.
Yeah, they don't have seem to be too chatty right now.
What's wrong? Don't all you gamergater crybabies want to come out and cry about how "toxic" we're being in our "liberal echo chamber"? Or are you too scared of getting *gasp* dogpiled?!?!?
Honestly thought he would win. But Alabama made the right choice
People do, which is why the GOP tries their damndest to gerrymander the distrect mapsOf course the racist pedo is demanding a recount. "Too close to call" which is really depressing that so many voted for a racist pedo just because he's a Republican.
I hope all people recognize the power of the black vote!!

Repubs in Alabama lost this one. They had a chance to put in your run of the mill Republican and win this race easily but they had to go in with the pedophile racist dude because he 'talks the talk', lol
Rough night for the Breitbart losers who have overtaken OT
They're all in the other thread, offended.
I didnt think this would actually happen. Hopefully this is a sign that sanity might creep its way back into politics.
Black people saved America. It's disgusting how many people voted for a fucking pedophile.
Washington PostJones benefitted from near-unanimous support from black voters, historically large support from whites
Fully 96 percent of African Americans supported Jones, similar to President Obamas 95 percent support among this group in 2012. But Jones fared much better than Obama among white voters, garnering 30 percent of their votes, twice the 15 percent who voted for Obama. Jones made particularly large gains among white women and those with college degrees.
That there is an excellent post.People do, which is why the GOP tries their damndest to gerrymander the distrect maps
