VIDEO: More people lose faith in our elections, Senator-elect Tuberville destroys Doug Jones, Alabama Democrats continue to lose ground and more on Alabama Politics This Week

—

November 8, 2020

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Alabama Democratic Executive Committee member Lisa Handback take you through Alabama’s biggest political stories, including:

— After the last two presidential elections, will anyone trust the results ever again?

— How did U.S. Senator-elect Tommy Tuberville gain such a decisive victory over U.S. Senator Doug Jones (D-AL)?

— Has the Alabama Democratic Party learned anything in the last few years, or did Senator Jones’ victory give them false hope?

Jackson and Handback are joined by a co-chairman of Tommy Tuberville’s Senate campaign to discuss his huge victory and who he sees as a potential candidate for U.S. Senator Richard Shelby’s (R-AL) Senate seat if he were to retire.

Jackson closes the show with a “parting shot” at those who don’t understand that the way early voting and mail-in voting is done is destroying the faith in our electoral system.

Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 7-11 AM weekdays on WVNN.
