President Trump gets another political victory as longtime ally Barry Moore is projected to defeat Democrat Everett Weiss, securing the Alabama Senate seat for Republicans.
Republicans have successfully defended another important Senate seat, with Rep. Barry Moore projected to emerge victorious in Alabama’s closely watched race to replace outgoing Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville.
Decision Desk HQ projected Moore as the winner over Democratic challenger Everett Weiss, an attorney who faced a difficult uphill battle in a state that has consistently delivered strong Republican victories in recent presidential elections.
The result represents more than simply maintaining Republican control of an existing Senate seat. It also marks a significant political win for President Donald Trump, whose endorsement helped propel Moore’s campaign and underscored the influence of his support among Alabama voters.
