Right now voters are heading to the polls to choose their next senator. The entire country watching this race between republican roy moore and Democrat Doug Jones. This race generating so much National Attention because of the Sexual Misconduct allegations against moore. Moore denies all of them and hes actually gotten support from President Trump late in this campaign. Still, the race is very close. Jones is saying that he feels confident and if he does win, it would be the first time in decades that a democrat wins a statewide election in alabama. Youve been following this on social media today, the fire storm caus tweet aimed at democratic senator Kirsten Gillibrand after she called for President Trump to resign over allegations of Sexual Misconduct. Mr. Trump called her, quote, a lightweight and wrote in his tweet that she used to come to his office, in his words, begging for Campaign Contribution tz, and he went on to say that she would, in his words again, do anything for them. Blayne alexander live on capitol hill with the fallout from this. Blayne . Reporter and, wendy, of course, all of this started because senator gillibrand was one of several senators calling for the president to resign in the wake of previous accusers coming forward. Now, keep in mind, these are not new Sexual Misconduct allegations against the president. But whats different is the response and the climate. Now more and more members of congress are willing to step in. The calls for an investigation growing louder. Mr. President , you live under a different set of rules.

And it represents the conduct of a person who is ill equipped to be the president of the united states. Reporter the white house firing back. Hes not alleging anything. Hes talking about the way that our system functions as it is, that politicianse also labeling his past accusers women he doesnt know or never met.
