Alabama Senate special election results

The race in Alabama ends on what has been a tumultuous few weeks - dominated in part by the multiple allegations of sexual assault and misconduct directed at Moore, and his campaign's conflicting responses to the accusations. The matter has rocked what would have otherwise been a cut-and-dry race in deep-red Alabama, where voters have consistently delivered Republicans to the Senate for the last two decades.

For that reason, experts have been reluctant to predict the race citing, among other things, voter turnout which remained a point of uncertainty on an election night that falls less than two weeks before Christmas.

Trump and former President Barack Obama have campaigned for Moore and Jones respectively. Moore has promised to champion Trump's agenda if elected, but it is uncertain how effective he would be on Capitol Hill.
