Standing before cheering supporters in the deeply red state of Alabama, former Vice President Joe Biden on Tuesday urged Alabama voters to send Democrat Doug Jones to replace Attorney General Jeff Sessions in the U.S. Senate. Biden said while a win by Jones in the GOP stronghold would reverberate across the country, he said Alabama voters should elect Jones "for Alabama." Do it for Alabama," Biden said of Jones. Before the rally with Biden, the Moore campaign sent out a statement saying Jones' appearance with Biden shows a "clear contrast" in the race. "Doug Jones has been trying to fool Alabama voters into thinking that he is really one of them, but he has shown his true colors by bringing in President Obama's Vice President to campaign for him and raise money for his campaign," Moore campaign chairman Bill Armistead said.
