11 Scenarios For How The Roy Moore Saga Could Play Out
Sexual assault allegations against Roy Moore have reverberated from Alabama to Washington, D.C.

McConnell, trying to save every seat possible in an already too-narrow-for-comfort majority, is gaming out scenarios to try to hold the seat long in GOP hands as Moore faces off against Democrat Doug Jones in a Dec. 12 special election.
