Moore, refusing to concede, says its not over (WaPo)

Moore, refusing to concede, says ‘it’s not over’

Doug Jones’s victory in a part of the Deep South that has not elected a Democratic senator since 1992 left Republicans picking through the wreckage after a blow that showed voter backlash to sexual misconduct allegations and the limits of President Trump’s influence. Republican Roy Moore will not go quietly, however, as the former judge suggested the race might go to a recount.

...After the race was called by the Associated Press, Moore declined to concede defeat, saying he believed that the margin of victory could narrow enough to trigger an automatic recount. “Realize that when the vote is this close that it’s not over,” he said. “We also know that God is always in control.”

Ha! He thinks God is on his side.

Remember when the orange demagogue and all the entire Reich-wing howler monkey's exploded in a fury when Clinton did not immediately concede...?
