They have a lesser of two evils choice ahead of them. Vote for Republican Roy Moore, despite believable reports of dating underage or really young teen age girls while in his 30's. The accusations are 40 years old, but there are a number of them. Plus Moore has made some very hard right statements on the social wedge issues.
Or vote for Democrat Jones, who is pro abortion, and very left, especially for a conservative state like Alabama. Doing so would knock the Republican majority in the Senate down to just one, permitting any senator to kill anything just 'cause he feels like it. It would seriously weaken the Trump administration. Something that a lot of Alabama voters don't want to do.
There has been talk of a a write in campaign for someone I never heard of before. I doubt that will go anywhere.
We will know how it turns out by Wednesday. The polls are calling it for Moore by a razor thin margin of a couple of percent. It will be interesting to see if the pollsters got it right this time. They have blown predictions several times in the recent past, especially the Trump Hillary contest.
