If you want a recount you can pay for it, Alabama secretary of state tells loser Roy Moore after alleged pedophile denies losing

...

Alabama's Secretary of State John Merrill said Republican Senate loser Roy Moore could get a recount of the election – if he paid for it.

'The people of Alabama have spoken tonight. They’ve made their voice heard loud and clear,' Merrill said on CNN.

Moore outdid even Democrat Doug Jones – who shocked the political world by winning – by dramatically coming onstage at his election night party and pronouncing the race not over.

Senate candidate Roy Moore refused to concede Tuesday night, urging journalists to ask Alabama's secretary of state about a recount. On CNN, the secretary of state said the people of Alabama 'made their voice heard loud and clear'

'I really want to thank you for coming tonight and realize when the vote is this close it is not over,' Moore said.

He urged journalists in the room to check in with the state's secretary of state about a recount provision, suggesting the race was close enough to trigger a second look.

At last counting, Jones had bested Moore by 20,000 votes or 1.5 per cent.

'But we know that God is always in control,' Moore also said. 'Part of the problem with this campaign is that we've been painted in unfavorable and unfaithful light. We've been put in a hole.'

After righteously proclaiming that Jesus will decide the outcome of the election, Roy Moore can't take no for an answer, not even from Jesus. Where's the faith, Roy?

Moore to Jesus: I want a second opinion. Jesus to Moore: Go fuck yourself.

Of course he still won't win, so that would be fun to watch.

If he's learned his lesson, I doubt he can count on any endorsement from that unemployed liberal Jew.

See my post in GD. Law only permits recount (contest) outside the .5% for certain offices - US Senate is not included.

If Moore really believed there was a Hell, he would not repeatedly commit the sin of lying...and he wouldn't have molested little girls.
