Roy Moore 'Seriously Considering' 2020 Senate Run
- 5 years ago
Roy Moore says he's serious considering another Senate run.
Former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore says he is "seriously considering" running for Senate in 2020 despite losing his 2017 bid amid sexual misconduct allegations.
After Bryan Fischer, host of American Family Radio's Focal Point show, asked Moore Friday about competing for the seat again, the conservative Republican replied, "I'm seriously considering it. I think the (2017 race) was stolen," reports Reuters.
He added: "I think that's been pronounced in the national newspapers – The New York Times, The Washington Post even has recognized there was a disinformation campaign going on in September of 2017 by forces outside of Alabama that spent a lot of money not regulated by the FEC in trying to dissuade Republicans from voting and encourage and enrage Democrats."
Democrat Doug Jones ended up narrowly clinching the seat vacated by then-attorney general Jeff Sessions.
