What the Media Aren’t Telling You About Tuesday’s Democrat Special Election Victory in Alabama

There is no way of saying that Tuesday’s special election in Alabama was in any way a positive for Republicans.

Democrat Marilyn Lands defeated Republican nominee Madison, Alabama, city councilman Teddy Powell by a 62%-38% blowout margin, an unexpected outcome in a seat only recently considered competitive.

For the first time since 2002, Democrats gained a seat on Republicans in the Alabama Legislature, where Republicans currently have a supermajority in both chambers.

What happened?

On Wednesday, national media are heralding the outcome and tying it to Alabama’s strict abortion ban passed by the legislature in 2019 and a recent Alabama Supreme Court ruling that granted embryos created during in vitro fertilization (IVF) personhood for the sake of civil matters considered by the state’s judiciary.

If they lose over killing babies, so be it. God’s watching.

[SaveFerris]

Yeah

[stanne]

You think men don’t vote abortion? You think men are a pro life clock?

[sauropod]

Never underestimate the stupidity of MSLSD/CNN watchers.

[nonliberal]

Repeal the 19th!

Radical pro-abortion policies are being marketed as the pro-family values vote. Warm, soft ads with grandmothers, clergy, playing children, etc. And the Dems have tons more cash to run them without any ability for the other side to counter this narrative.

Marketing matters, messaging matters, money matters. The Democrats are outraising and outworking us - to the nth degree. Our side is not competing. They are sitting on their behinds and keeping their wallets closed while the Democrats work their tails off. No doubt there is fraud and other shenanigans, but they don’t need as much of that with our side rolling over and playing dead election cycle after election cycle.
