This is the beginning of a Blue Wave of Democratic Victories across the Country in 2018 and 2020.

We will work tirelessly until Trump and his Criminal Cohorts are thrown out of office and consigned to the garbage heap of history.

Congrats to Doug Jones and everyone who helped elect him!

"At the end of the day, this entire race has been about dignity and respect.

This campaign has been about the rule of law.

This campaign has been about common courtesy and decency."

I'm just spitballin' here, but perhaps he missed asking someones mamma if he can take her daughter to prom.

This victory is sweet on every aspect.

But it's huge for this reason. It deflates Rumptard and is a huge shot across the bow of vulnerable repugs. You're on notice. Voters do not like you redistributing the wealth and taking our Affordable Care Act care away. CHIP needs to be funded and America has real problems that need to be dealt with by serious representatives.

Republicans, you ain't it.

So tonight I say F*ck You Trump, McConnell and Ryan!

I knew we had a really good chance

Dems took two major demographics by fat margins - black voters and women voters

These ordinary folks knew from the campaign, that Doug Jones put criminals behind bars

It was law and order for common folk

So, even in Alabama, a complete bottom-feeding scum can be rejected by voters. Shame it takes that much to do it.

When she called (middle of whenever here, 3 hour time difference), she'd lost her voice jumping up and down yelling and of course added ROLLLLLLLLLLLLL TIIIIIIIIIIIIDE! She worked SO hard for this man of integrity and honor - as hard as I worked for Obama and Hillary - so WOW WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Mama was crying, too, because my rural Alabama daughter helped make this REAL!
