What Went Down In The 2018 Midterms

We’ve got a Roy Moore flashback in Alabama, where a constitutional amendment allowing the Ten Commandments to be displayed on state, public and school grounds has 73 percent of the vote with about half of precincts reporting. Fifteen years ago, Moore was stripped of his seat on the state Supreme Court after defying a federal judge’s order to remove an enormous granite Ten Commandments from the lobby of the judicial building. Proponents of this amendment are anticipating a legal fight that could go to the Supreme Court, where they are hoping for a sympathetic hearing from the new conservative majority.
