Dem lawmaker: Jones won because 'brave women told the truth about Roy Moore'

Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) said Democrat Doug Jones won the Alabama Senate election because “brave women told the truth about Roy Moore.”

Lieu tweeted the message just minutes after the Alabama Senate race was declared for Jones.

“Two of the reasons Doug Jones won the #AlabamaSenateElection. (1) Brave women told the truth about Roy Moore,” Lieu wrote. “(2) The excellent reporting by @washingtonpost and others in the free press. This is why we have the First Amendment.”
