Roy Moore Has One More Embarrassment Up His Sleeve

Roy Moore Has One More Embarrassment Up His Sleeve

Ugh. "But Roy Moore isn’t willing to concede, declaring in a video statement that “the battle rages on.” Except… it doesn’t. The votes have been counted and cast, and it wasn’t as close as he’s insisting it is. The battle is over and he lost. Doug Jones doesn’t need Roy Moore’s concession; there is no legal or Constitutional requirement for it. It’s just a longstanding American tradition of grace, respect and honoring the results of our democratic process. Thus, it’s not surprising that Roy Moore can’t understand it. By refusing to concede, he’s not making a statement about Jones or the vote-counting; he’s making a statement about himself."
