The Alabama Republican Senate Runoff election has been called for Trump-endorsed Tommy Tuberville over Jeff Sessions.
It wasn’t close.
At this writing, with 42% reporting, Tuberville was ahead by 25 points.
Tommy Tuberville | 125,030 | 62.7% | |
---|---|---|---|
Jeff Sessions | 74,390 | 37.3 |
Hopefully there aren’t any shoes to drop on Tuberville.
Unless there is a scandal, he should easily beat Doug Jones, for a Republican pick-up. That will make it more difficult, but not impossible, for Democrats to retake the Senate.
It’s the end of Jeff Sessions’ political career.
I know there’s a lot of hostility towards him for the way he handled what ended up being Mueller-gate, but he was solid on so many of the issues and fought a good fight for decades. He also was the first Republican Senator to endorse Trump at a time the establishment was still laughing.
