I am actually surprised, considering how much support Trump got, and he had allegations himself. A different Republican candidate obviously wouldn't have lost, but it is fortunate that Alabama didn't support Bannon-sponsored Moore.

"For now, let's hope Alabama slowly continues its increase in progressive beliefs."

Don't expect much from this. Moore was really bad as a candidate. That the results were as close as they were shows that Alabama isn't trending blue.

Progress comes slowly. I'll take a win, even if it means we don't see another dem for another few years
