A voter exits a polling place on the day of Alabama's special Senate election, in Dothan, Ala., Dec. 12, 2017. Alabama voters went to the polls Tuesday to decide between Roy Moore, a Republican, and Doug Jones, a Democrat, in a race destined to be remembered as one of the strangest and ugliest campaigns ever held in a state not lacking in unsightly politics.
