From Yahoo News: Firebrand jurist Roy Moore has won the Alabama Republican primary for U.S. Senate, defeating an appointed incumbent backed by President Donald Trump and allies of Sen. Mitch McConnell.
In an upset likely to rock the party establishment, Moore clinched victory Tuesday over Sen. Luther Strange to win the GOP nomination for the Senate seat previously held by Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Moore will face Democrat Doug Jones in a Dec. 12 special election.
Moore is the state's former chief justice who was twice removed from his duties for defying federal courts over same-sex marriage and the public display of the Ten Commandments.
Propelled by evangelical voters, Moore consolidated support from a number of anti-establishment forces, including former White House strategist Steve Bannon. https://www.yahoo.com/news/latest-trump-makes-final-push-alabama-senate-race-111940934--election.html
Moore led the polls throughout the primary and he defeats Mitch McConnell's lapdog.
This is a big win for conservatives and I hope the Swamp realizes this.
Another winner here in Arizona is Dr. Kelli Ward, a true conservative who is going after RINO Jeff Flake.
