Colorado's Republican Senator Cory Gardner, who leads the national committee to elect Republicans to the Senate, is urging Senator-elect Doug Jones to work with Republicans once he takes office.

In a statement issued immediately after Jones' win in over Roy Moore, Gardner wrote:

"Tonight's results are clear-- the people of Alabama deemed Roy Moore unfit to serve in the U.S. Senate. I hope Senator-elect Doug Jones will do the right thing and truly represent Alabama by choosing to vote with the Senate Republican majority."

Gardner said last month that he push for the Senate to expel Moore if he won the special election in Alabama. Moore has been accused of sexual misconduct with teenage girls.

Colorado's Democratic Senator Michael Bennet was short and sweet with his response to Moore's loss.

"Welcome to the Senate, Doug Jones," he posted to Twitter.

Welcome to the Senate, Doug Jones. — Michael F. Bennet (@SenBennetCO) December 13, 2017
