Alabama Senate Race

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WCBI) – Doug Jones is the official winner of the Alabama special Senate election.

Jones, a Democrat, was certified earlier today, December 28, by the Alabama election commission.

Jones defeated Republican Roy Moore by about 22,000 votes on December 12.

Moore refused to concede the race. His campaign filed a lawsuit yesterday, December 27, saying there were voting irregularities that needed to be investigated.

A judge rejected his claims.

Election officials also say they found no evidence of fraud or irregularities.
