Alabama Secretary of State: If State GOP Pulls Support for Moore and He Gets the Most Votes, Election Would Be ‘Null and Void’

On Monday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Fox News @ Night,” Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill (R) said that the Alabama Republican Party can formally pull its support for its Senate nominee Judge Roy Moore, and if this happens and Moore still gets the most votes, the election would be null and void.

Merrill said Moore could withdraw from the race, or the state Republican Party could formally pull its support. He further stated that if that happens and Moore receives the most votes, “our election would be declared null and void, and Governor Ivey would have to call another special election, and we’d start the process all over again.”

People should be shot if this happens. But I doubt anyone on the right would do a damn thing about it, certainly not to that extreme.

It is amazing to see us become the Soviet Union in every last way.

I don’t believe that would stand in court.
Yes, states have broad authority on elections but there are other parts in the Constitution.
Be a fun case to see tried.

Why would the election be null and void? I’d think a farmer could run without support from a political party and if he won wouldn’t the election count?

I gues the odds are that this seat will be Democrat, no matter what else happens. I KNEW McConnell didn’t want to be the leader in the Senate......he secretly wants Schumer, so he can laze about more than usual.

So it is either the dimoKKKRAT wins or there will be another election? Not good, not good at all.

So the ranking of importance in elections is:

1. political parties

2. voters

Nice. The founders of this nation must be whirling like lopsided tops in their graves.

Don’t we vote for a candidate?

Not for a Party?

Why would the election be null and void?

Short answer: Because the people refuse to vote the way the Establishment wants.

I expect the next step will have Republicans and Democrats work together to defraud all elections nationwide.

They probably can’t make the election null and void after the fact. But they can publicize that those wanting to vote for Moore would be wasting it in an attempt to try and suppress the vote.

Those “in power” really hate this guy and the positions for which he stands. That is all the more reason for electing him...and for “going nuts” with these tyrannical losers if they remove him.
