Live Alabama Election Results: Roy Moore and Doug Jones Compete for Senate Seat
New York Times ^ | December 12, 2017 | MATTHEW BLOCH, NATE COHN, JOSH KATZ and JASMINE LEE

Alabama votes on Tuesday in a special election to fill the Senate seat vacated by Jeff Sessions, now the attorney general. The last polls close at 8 p.m. Eastern. Strong support for Roy S. Moore, the Republican, is expected in rural, mostly white parts of the state and in its northern half. The Democrat, Doug Jones, aims to create a lead in the urban counties that include Birmingham and Montgomery, and across a band of largely black counties.

One critical battleground is a trio of smaller, whiter cities: Mobile, Tuscaloosa and Huntsville. Mr. Moore won a hard race in 2012 by keeping things close there. Mr. Jones hopes to win the cities by a convincing margin.

“Are these precincts reporting to the NYT before they report to the SOS? Where is NYT getting these numbers?”

I don’t know, but sometimes I notice that there math is bad on Percent reporting. I used a calculator to confirm it. Other times it is ok.

Yup. The MSM is gonna slow pedal the vote count. Give it another hour and the Moore win will crystalize. The f***ing media doesn’t give a damn about truth and honestly. They gotta keep their Democrat masters and Deep State sponsors protected!

“On November 8th at this time, Freepers were throwing in the towel in droves. But I knew the early results were going to be favorable to Hillary.”

Yup, a person should never get too excited one way or another by the first-early results.

God is in charge, He is in control, He is on the throne and if people in America won’t recognize that, and turn from evil then we are doomed as a nation. The headlines expose us as an utterly sick society.
