Fox News is indicating that Jones will probably win, given the outstanding counties still to report.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Reports of Voter Suppression Tactics Pour In From Alabama Election
A quick-off-the-mark account of some of what people are seeing on the ground in terms of people being denied a vote. Obviously it will take some time to determine whether these are isolated and (in the grand scheme of things) irrelevant instances, or whether these are happening on a large enough of a scale to affect the final outcome (which at this stage is looking tight)."I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump
"Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism" - George Orwell
"[Capitalism] as it exists today is, in my opinion, the real source of evils. I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy" - Albert Einstein

Larger counties are probably more likely to be blue so would that account for them reporting later (more votes to count)?"I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

I dunno, Montgomery and Dallas are the biggest holdouts (Dallas is just weird - no precincts reporting).
