Statistician claims that the chance that AL results are correct is one in 15 billion
Posted on | December 28, 2017 | 5 Comments
Roy Moore’s campaign launched a last-minute court battle late Wednesday to block his loss in Alabama’s special Senate election from becoming official.
Democrat Doug Jones defeated Moore, a Republican former justice of the state Supreme Court who was endorsed by President Donald Trump, in the Dec. 12 election to assume the Senate seat of Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
Moore has refused to concede the election, which he had been widely expected to win before allegations of sexual misconduct with underage girls emerged late in the campaign. Moore has denied all of the allegations.The Alabama State Canvassing Board is scheduled to meet Thursday afternoon to certify Jones’ victory. But the Moore campaign filed a complaint late Wednesday night in state circuit court in Montgomery, the state capital, seeking a temporary restraining order to postpone the certification, alleging “potential election fraud that improperly altered the outcome of this election.”
“This is not a Republican or Democrat issue as election integrity should matter to everyone,” Moore said in a statement released by the campaign.
The statement gives few details of the purported irregularities, which it says were substantiated “with a reasonable degree of statistical and mathematical certainty” by three election experts.
The statement identifies only one of the experts, Richard Charnin, whom it quotes as saying the probability that the official election results were accurate was “less than one in 15 billion.” https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/roy-moore-alleges-voter-fraud-files-challenge-election-defeat-n833041

This is embarrassing. The AL Secretary of State voted for Moore but says he has seen no evidence of voter fraud. The best Moore can hope for is a slight delay in certifying Jones. Moore was a flawed candidate even before the allegations of sexual impropriety and he lost.

I agree, there was BIG voter fraud in the Al election. The Al attorney general, I think, was either bribed or his family threatened.

well, this seat will be up for reelection in 2 years, at that time Republican women will not stay at home and a Republican candidate is likely to retake this seat with a large margin in 2 years

Is it possible that Al has govt corruption to the core…
Even when Sessions was elected to the Senate?
This election, IMO, is corrupt!
By rights Moore should have won!
This was just like the way Harry Reid kept winning in Nv.
Especially since we found out that his son was in charge of the Nv elections!
Moore should get these results re=counted as well as can be done!
Soros and O are very much responsible for this fiasco!

Wonder where Judge Johnny got his orders from when he threw this election to the other side. Shame on you Judge Johnny Hardick, you sir are an ass!
