Decency Won Out!

Despite voter suppression laws,

Alabamians voted for

A Democrat to serve in Congress.

Doug Jones beat Roy Moore!

 

A man who respects the rule of law

And built supporters' esprit de corps

Won a defining but narrow election.

Doug Jones beat Roy Moore!

 

The win hopefully sends a message

That actions are something we won't ignore--

That decency and respect matter.

Doug Jones beat Roy Moore!

 

When racist, xeno- and homophobic

Feelings ooze from every pore,

That person is unfit for office.

Doug Jones beat Roy Moore!

 

Sexual assaulters beware:

American voters are keeping score

As more victims speak out loudly.

Doug Jones beat Roy Moore!

 

May the movement for honesty,

Truth, respect, and integrity soar!

Keep alive the momentum of hope.

Doug Jones beat Roy Moore!
