President Donald Trump is congratulating Democrat Doug Jones on his victory in Tuesday night's special election in Alabama. Trump tweeted, "Congratulations to Doug Jones on a hard fought victory. The write-in votes played a very big factor, but a win is a win." He added, "The people of Alabama are great, and the Republicans will have another shot at this seat in a very short period of time. It never ends!"
Jones' victory is a big defeat for President Trump and his former chief strategist Steve Bannon, who both strongly supported Moore.
