It's good news, but sad that someone who has been credibly accused of being a child molester (9 accusers, dozens of testimonies, including from law enforcement, etc) only lost by 0,7%. And the statistics of who voted for him is a bit discouraging.

"Moore may possibly be a pedophile, but even if he is, at least he's not a Democrat."
That's the though process going on. The Republican candidate being a likely sexual predator is irrelevant. Even if we was found to be guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt, there are will always be a solid contingent of conservative voters who would still support that absolute monster of a human being because he can be counted on to vote in favor of tax cuts, ensure that guns remain as unregulated as possible, confirm conservative SCotUS judges, and try to push for Dominionist dominance of social policy.
The Democrat can be a morally upright family man/woman who goes to church every Sunday (and not just for show, but because of a deep abiding faith in Jesus Christ), pays their taxes, obeys the law, and is otherwise as squeaky clean as possible, but, in the eyes of many conservatives, because he's a Democrat, that automatically makes him a literal Stalinist that is intentionally out to destroy America with horrible things like energy efficient light bulbs, bans on bump fire stocks, and appointing federal judges that won't try to force the gays back in the closet.

Someone who has a deep abiding faith in Jesus wouldn't be for the murdering of the life God creates in the womb (or out of the womb). Their hearts would be deeply troubled by that. If Jones had come out as pro baby rights, he would have absolutely destroyed Moore. I'm not an Alabaman, so I didn't vote, but this is what Alabama voters had to consider:
Either elect Moore, who potentially harmed/violated/raped/harrassed/etc. multiple women years ago.
Or elect Jones, who will continue to support the murdering of millions of babies a year, and over 50 million since Roe V. Wade.
I believe it is important to understand all sides of an issue. If someone doesn't understand this perspective, then they don't get that to many Americans, abortion is murder, it isn't some political opinion we all get to discuss at thanksgiving before we move on to sports, laugh and have a gool ol' time.
Here's the daily abortion rate, based on the 54 million killed since Roe V. Wade, and this is what eats up a lot of Americans:
