I know I'm late to the party but Ben Kenobi's "model" is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen on this forum.

Also very happy to see Jones pull this out. Insane that Moore could get as close as he did but I guess we have to take what we can get from Alabama. Tongue

Moore wants the bribe money he would have cashed in as senator. It's pretty obvious personal enrichment is his main driver.

I'm happy that the religious extremist and alleged pedophile didn't win, but Doug Jones isn't much to write home about. He hardly ever mentioned his positions on anything, and constantly focused on how bad his opponent was, and not what he wanted to do for Alabama. He had no substance to him, and that's why he only won by 1.5% against a known pedophile, despite having 10x more funding and the entire media system & politicians (including some Republicans) behind him.

I never get how people decide on those things. Do you live in Alabama? I've seen Jones ads about what he wants to do for education for example and my impression was that he spent more time on his own stuff than on attacking Moore (though I don't know, I don't claim to have seen all his ads).

Greedo, you've been wrong about everything you ever said, you can't write legible English and you don't have a grasp of basic morality. Just stop expressing yourself, you have nothing worth saying and you also can't say things because you suck at language.

Great work NOVA Green! Do you yourself have an overall conclusion from all this analysis as to what was the main driver of Jones' win?
