Where are you getting your info?

Shall I go back to the TV?

Last I looked, it was 0-2% reporting.

U.S. House Dist. 5 (GOP) - 48% reporting

1. M. Brooks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16,446
2. P. Griffi . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11,120
3. L. Phillip . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4,871

Interesting race here. The party switching incumbent may lose in the primary.

Or is this Peter Griffin, "The Family Guy" who is getting beat?

U.S. Senate (GOP) - 55% reporting

1. * R. Shelby . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 211,881
2. C. Moser . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 38,489

I would contend that C. Moser and his mother actually want C. Moser to be the next Senator from Alabama. 38,487 people (just like me) were voting against entrenched incumbency.

Bradley is risking not making the runoff. I thought he might run away with it.

What all of America wants to know, did Dale Peterson win the Ag Commissioner race. He should have with that commercial of his.

Eight people running for Alabama's "special" district. This is the district drawn so as to remove as many of "those people" as possible for all of "our" districts.

She has the nomination. She’ll also lose by 20 pts to Folsom in the fall. She’s the only one he can credibly attack on the PACT issue.

Erwin could have at least attacked Folsom on that although his overall vote would have been limited because just one play of his hurricane comments would cost him Mobile County. Ivey though, it will be a disaster. She is the villain of the PACT people and for good reason. I really wish we could displace her from the ticket because she will be the most unpopular person in the state of either party on a ticket and she’ll be on ours. I would have rather this not happened.

4. B. Johnson . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7,300

What a horse race? Rounding the final turn, it's Byrne by a stride, with Bentley nosing out James for Place. And Show doesn't count in runoffs!

U.S. House Dist. 5 (GOP) - 99% reporting

1. M. Brooks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35,483
2. P. Griffi . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23,283
3. L. Phillip . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10,999

It's Mo Brooks without a runoff. (35,000 of 69,000 GOP votes)

He'll face Raby who received ~30,000 of 45,000 Dim votes.

Looks like this one should be the GOPs to lose.

I posted this as comment #1.

Oh, and I went with Byrne for governor. He is likely not the most "Christian, Conservative" in the race (that would be Roy Moore), but he seems like he'd be a competent governor.

Ads have been run against him on Christian radio saying that he "believes in evolution and he believes that the Bible may not be completely true." That seemed a bit creepy to me.

I just found this:

Noted Democrat Paul Hubbert of AEA set up a front group called True Republican PAC to run ads attacking Republican gubernatorial candidate Bradley Byrne for, among other things, not being conservative enough and wanting evolution taught in schools. Yes, that’s a left-winger paying for ads complaining that Byrne is “another liberal politician trying to look conservative.”

No wonder I thougth those ads were creepy!
