Moore refuses to concede after Jones certified winner

BY AVERY ANAPOL - 12/28/17 04:17 PM EST

Roy Moore is refusing to concede the Alabama Senate special election, even after Democratic opponent Doug Jones’s victory was made official by the state.

Moore issued a statement on Thursday reiterating his claims that voter fraud caused him to lose the election.

"Election fraud experts across the country have agreed that this was a fraudulent election,” Moore said in his statement. "I’ve had to fight not only the Democrats but also the Republican Senate Leadership Fund and over $50 million in opposition spending from the Washington establishment.”

Alabama officials certified Jones’s victory earlier Thursday, despite Moore’s claims of voter fraud.

thinks he can bull his way into the senate.

It's time for him to wake up and smell the roses. He lost and there is no way he can change that.

If Roy wants to flounce around whining, that's totally up to him. The rest of us can marvel at the childish ways of an old man who will never hold elective office again.
