Predicto Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 oh Alabama.

Moore was elected chief justice in 2000, but a state judicial panel removed him three years later after he refused to obey a federal judge’s order to remove a 5,200-pound granite Ten Commandments monument from the lobby of the Alabama Judicial Building.... Natalie Davis, a pollster and political scientist at Birmingham-Southern College, said Moore benefited from high name recognition and a base of voters that associate him with the Ten Commandments. “He benefits from straight-ticket Republican voting and he benefits that Alabama is one of the most religiously oriented states in the country,” Stewart said.
