'''[[Roy Moore]] refuses to concede the [[election]],''' and will ask for a [[recount]]. [http://www.cnn.com/2017/12/13/politics/roy-moore-speech/] ''Note: the apparent margin of victory for [[Doug Jones]] is less than the total votes for write-in candidates.''
* “We have stopped prayer in our schools,” Moore said in a post-election statement. “We have killed over 60 million of our unborn children. We have redefined marriage and destroyed the basis of family, which is the building block of our country. Our borders are not secure. Our economy is faltering under an enormous national debt. We have a huge drug problem. We have even begun to recognize the right of a man to claim to be a woman, and vice versa. We have allowed Judges and justices to rule over our Constitution, and we have become slaves to their tyranny. Immorality sweeps over our land.” [https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2017/12/13/roy-moore-saying-immorality-sweeps-over-our-land-declines-again-to-concede/?utm_term=.b8f9b9095ee1]
