Interesting comments from Sen. Tommy Tuberville today in Alabama as he runs for governor --
He said "there will not be congressional votes today on those seven seats" for Congress (incorrect)
And he said he's not sure Republican's redistricting efforts will actually go through.
The AL1 GOP race is on the ballot. Yes. And yes, Senator Britt endorsed Rhett Marques. But the contest does not count, per a special election that Governor Ivey called and in which Marques is running in on Aug. 11. He's also announced plans to run in AL2, not AL1.
Tomorrow’s results are going to be interesting aside from the governor’s race. I don’t recall having so many undecided voters calling or texting me about all of the statewide races and asking me who they should support. In a political atmosphere like this, anything can happen…
Happy Mother’s Day to our mother, Viola Liuzzo, who helped provide everyone the right to vote. The past 61 years did make a difference. Ní neart go cur le chéile. 👏💛
