The margin of victory is so small that it's tough to feel particularly good about it
I wonder how 'The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse' would play out in modern America. White rural christian taliban vs Brown people and liberals. I'm sure guns would be involved.

But isn't it normally a fiercely republican seat?
So a democrat victory is actually a huge swing.

^this
The last election I can find stats for, the Republican candidate won with 97.3% of the vote. Democrats didn't even field a candidate.

This is a good point
But still just under 50% of Alabama are the fucking dregs.

It's hope. A start. Watching the right on twitter etc crow because their man had a 5 point lead for most of the night was funny. They didn't understand that the reporting was coming on from small rural counts while the massive Jones areas like Madison etc had yet to complete. That website pretty much had it in Jones favour from the first half hour. At the moment the actual count turned against Moore just at the end, the claims of voter fraud and dead people voting began ( e.g. twitter.com/Todd_W_Haines/status/940784803678265344 ) Previously there was snowflake taunting etc....like claiming victory in the uk on a massively narrowed margin in Esher and Walton before all the inner cities had started the count.
