Roy Moore apparently still thinks he has a chance.
The GOP candidate released a video statement late Wednesday declaring that he has not conceded the election that was called for Democratic candidate Doug Jones.
And the battle rages on, Moore said. In this race, we have not received the final count the final count to include military and provisional ballots. This has been a very close race and we are awaiting certification by the Secretary of State.
He went on to say that the countrys heart and soul is at stake and that he was concerned about the future of our country. Both financially and morally.
According to the latest results, Jones leads Moore 49.9% to 48.4%, a margin of more than 20,000 voters.

(60,010 posts)In law school ( Univ. of Ala) one professor was so taken with the severe limitations on Roy's thinking that he named him Fruit Salad, "because you are so mixed up about everything".
Roy is like Trump in so many ways. Closed minded, huge and undeserved ego, incompetent ( he became a judge because of connections). He is actually a laughingstock of his peers, but has attracted a "base" of
like minded ignoramuses, like the one that Jake Tapper verbally pole-axed today.
at this point, most of us in Ala. just want him to go away.
Gets credit for being tenacious, tho.
