CAMPAIGN 2024: Sarah Stewart wins Republican primary for Alabama Chief Justice
CAMPAIGN 2024: Alabama Supreme Court Justice Sarah Stewart has won the Republican nomination for Alabama chief justice.
Stewart defeated Bryan Taylor, a former state senator and legal adviser to two governors, to secure the GOP nomination. She will face Montgomery County Circuit Judge Greg Griffin, a Democrat, in November.
Stewart is seeking to fill the position held by retiring Chief Justice Tom Parker.
The Alabama chief justice serves on the state’s highest court, and also serves as the administrative head of the state court system.
Parker cannot run again because Alabama law prohibits judges from being elected or appointed after age 70.
