According to CNN exit polls there was 25% turnout with 30% AA votes which is 4% higher than proportion of the voting age population.

So, maybe? Maybe not.

Can't wait to see who the Dems blame for their loss. Voters? The DSA? "Berniecrats"?

It'll be great.

The voters actually will be to blame because the majority of Alabama are racist garbage who probably think that if 14 year olds don't want to be groped they shouldn't be so sexy. Trump won Alabama by 28 goddamn percentage points. Having a Democrat within spitting distance is crazy enough. Actually winning would be a miracle.

Maybe if the Dems ran someone that wasn't the human embodiment of the stale end slice of white bread they could have capitalized on this left-leaning surge better?

Call me crazy I guess, but I never figured a platform centered on "I'm not the other guy" would win this after it didn't beat Trump.

Most Dem talking points are poison in Alabama. If you put a D in front of Dick Cheney he would be near unelectable in any other Alabama election.
