The crossover goober-picking party is over.

Gov. Kay Ivey signed a bill on Monday to ban crossover voting in Alabama primaries. 

Messing with the GOP election is pretty much the only entertainment Democrats have had in recent years. In some cases, Democrats haven't even fielded a candidate to waste a vote on. Republican goober-picking is all they've had. 

Democrats have had a party rule prohibiting Republicans from crossing over and voting in their runoffs for decades.

Some blame the crossover vote {yallerdawg pleads guilty! } for Alabama's biggest gubernatorial goober of all - Dr. Robert Bentley - at least his first term. The second term - the Luv Guv term - is all on his home team.
