I really dig that NYT election tracker. It's basically a sporting event for nerds.

On that note, it looks like Jones has it. I'm now interested in what Franken will do....

Its being called for Jones, only the big cities are left and he is running away with them. Its a huge loss for Trump, but the GOP establishment dodges a bullet, they don't have to deal with Moore, who only wrote one speech apparently.

Franken will resign at the end of this session I'm guessing, which based on the current calender, they are adjourning on the 22nd.

He might resign if the seat is safely in a Democrats hands and the DNC feels they need to remove the bad press. Looks like the Dems pulled a win in Alabama, looking at the voting area's it's mostly City vs Rural with heavy blue turnout. Alabama is a heavy red state but many people simply weren't motivated to go and vote so there you have it.

On a note, the tally is less then 10K difference and there still remains approximately 50~60K votes to count. So it's still possible for Moore to win, but the projections are pretty clear that he's probably going to fall short cause the areas with the most uncounted votes are blue.

First Dem to be elected from Alabama in over 20 years, and shaves the GOP majority to just 51.

Yeah President Trump was an idiot when he tapped the former Senator for an Executive position. They probably thought Alabama was a guaranteed seat, and here they are.

Didn't Shelby win as a Democrat in 14 or something and changed to Republican while in office or did I misunderstand?

Gonna last three years. 2020 is when that seat is up for grabs and Alabama is super red.

Yeah, it will most likely be flipped again but a lot can happen to piss people off in three years.

He won in '86 as a Democrat and switched in '94.

It's super close but yeah, heavy turnout of urban liberals and low turnout of conservatives. He's lost, not super popular and DNC poured a ton of money against him. I don't expect Jones to be there after 2020.

Yeah, Moore is refusing to concede, not exactly shocking, he has now become the gift that keeps on giving.

Well to be really insane they could always do a recall in a year. Would be some funny ***to watch.

No doubt, it's a short term win. Like half the state still voted for Moore.
