Moore camp warns of consequences if Jones is certified as Alabama winner

Source: The Hill




BY BEN KAMISAR - 12/28/17 01:16 PM EST

A spokeswoman for Roy Moore, the loser in Alabama’s Senate special election earlier this month, warned state officials they might face consequences if they certify Democrat Doug Jones as the winner.

Speaking with CNN's Dana Bash on Thursday, Moore campaign spokeswoman Janet Porter issued the warning to Gov. Kay Ivey (R) and Secretary of State John Merrill, who are set to meet this afternoon to certify Jones.

Jones won the special election by 1.5 percentage points, a margin too wide to trigger a recount, but Moore and his campaign are arguing he won thanks to voter fraud.

“Here's the thing that Governor Ivy needs to know: She's up for reelection too and there are 650,000 people who are watching this very closely, what they do right now,” Porter said.

It is deliciously wicked of me to think they now know that there may be no God after all...at least not one representing 100% poor, gay, not white, Islam etc. hating extremist Christians like themselves.

Shouldn't have allowed Moore to run, and worst have Trump back him.

Then again, you shouldn't have allowed Trump to run either but I guess you needed the Russian wire transfers for your own races. You're destroying your own party, not our problem.
