Turnout reports don't always indicate which way an election is going, so let's not declare anyone done yet based on them. With that said, I have seen a couple of tweets that say that turnout in the rurals is low, but of course that is anecdotal.

My colleague who works at a tech company in Alabama just voted for Jones. All of her colleagues over there voted for Jones too.

Folks, cool it with the turnout reports. In the words of a great man from New Jersey, “It don’t matter. None of this matters.”

If Jones wins, his approval will automatically be ten points negative. Same for Moore. Neither will win reelection.

Some twitter reports of regular black voters surprisingly being put on inactive voter lists.

I'm not so sure about that.

If Moore wins, I'd think he'd win again in 2020. He'd certainly beat any primary challenge and if he won this election, he could win the next one. On the other hand, if Jones wins, Moore will likely run again in 2020 and win the nomination. And Jones might win again, possibly creating a scenario where Moore sabotages every single Alabama senate race for the GOP for years to come.

Another reason to "discount turnout reports" is that this is a +30 R state. Even if dem turnout is way up and GOP turnout way down, there is still a huge whole to climb out out.

Imagine if a football team wins the second half 28-0....but went into halftime down 31-0.

Lol I wish. I don't see him winning re-election unless the GOP nominates someone like Moore again in 2020.

If Rapist Roy Moore is elected today (99% chance this happens) then I hope Al franken rescinds his resignation and remains in the senate. Evan if he's "guilty" of accidentally touching people's asses that's NOTHING in comparison to attempting to F*** a 14 year old girl and GILLIBRAND and company should Know this.

When you sound like Trump, you know you're wrong.

Seriously, that is written exactly like a Trump tweet.

Why can't the democrats learn how to play hardball "You elect a rapist, we keep are wrongly accused senators" However gillibrand is going to run us over the cliff into oblivion with her self-promoting culture wars instead of a real Left-wing Economic platform as promoted by Sanders and Warren.

The electorate in this special election isn't going to be nearly as R-friendly as the one that turned out in 2016, but then again you probably knew this already.

I'm not paying any attention to "turnout reports", especially after what happened last year and last month.

Alabama youth vote is very Democratic. By 2020, they will be the majority of Alabama voters and begin to cancel out the older Molestin' Moore cohort of voters

Why are you saying that a left-wing platform would throw away Colorado, Virginia, and Florida.

Dumping Franken *is* hardball.  They're dumping a Senator from their own party because he became a political liability.  Keeping a Senator even though he's a liability would mean going soft.

I think that those states won't vote for a sandersite...

But I'd rather not go off on a tangent about this.

Warren will hold Colorado and Virginia, and Florida isn't voting for any democrats including gillibrand, obamas wins in Florida were total flukes driven by unusually high black turnout. Democrats usually win Florida only "once in a blue moon" due to conservative Cubans, disenfranchised black people, and massive amounts of retired affluent white voters (The GOP base).

People will vote after work. Expect turnout to increase across the board after 4 and 5 PM EST. Polls close at 7.

I just got home from voting with my grandparents. Hard to tell about turnout because of our small precinct but most polling places around here are very crowded.

I thought you weren't going to vote for anyone

This is what I said, "Me and my dad both supported Strange in the GOP primary and runoff. He says that he’s not voting this time." My dad isn't voting. I did

Did you write anyone in?

I voted for Jones

I want to know how the heavily Republican counties are on turnout.

Especially rural ones.
