Less that one day before Democrat Doug Jones was certifiably declared the winner of the Alabama Senate race, Republican and pedophile Roy Moore filed a lawsuit contesting the outcome of the election.
Moore lost Jeff Sessions’ vacated Senate seat by about 20,000 votes in the wake of multiple sexual harassment, pedophilia, and misconduct allegations. Multiple women recalled how the then-30-year-old judge preyed on them as underage girls and regularly stalked the mall after-hours, making several employees extremely uncomfortable.

Late Wednesday night, Moore’s attorney filed a complaint in Montgomery Circuit Court stating his client believed there were “irregularities during the election” and calling for a fraud investigation and a relaunch of the election. President Trump officially endorsed Moore despite the Republican National Committee withdrawing its official support and multiple party members publicly denouncing his actions.
Jones’ win has been attributed to large African-American voter turnout, a fact that no doubt irks Roy Moore who has previously stated that the last time America was “great” was when slavery was still legal. This will be the first time Alabama has had a Democratic senator in a quarter of a century.
