Please welcome doug jones to this program. Last month he won the democratic primary in alabamas special senate race. His republican opponent is roy moore, a former state Supreme Court chief justice. They will face off in a special election on december 12. Mr. Jones joins us tonight from alaba alabama. Good to have you back on. Great to be with you, tavis. Let me start by explaining to the audience why this race is so important. One, because its a u. S. Senate race, all u. S. Senate races are important but this is the seat to replace Jeff Sessions who is now the attorney general. This is also the seat in the state of alabama where donald trump was a few weeks ago when he called those nfl players s. O. B. S while he was there campaigning for senator Luther Strange. Donald trump was throwing, to my mind, red meat to a red state. Trumps candidate, senator strange, lost to the former Supreme Court chief Justice Roy Moore so hes the republican nominee, doug jones is the democratic nominee. S
