STATE AND LOCAL ELECTION RESULTS
Polls closed at 7PM. It typically takes several hours to count all of the ballots statewide. The Associated Press may announce a winner of a race depending on the results.
The top state and local races are:
U.S. House District 2: This redrawn district features 11 candidates on the Democratic ballot and 8 on the Republican ballot. The winner in November will replace Republican U.S. Rep. Barry Moore, who lives in Enterprise and was drawn out of the district.
U.S. House District 1: U.S. Rep. Barry Moore is now in this district and is challenging U.S. Rep. Jerry Carl for the seat. Both are Republicans and both were first elected in 2020. The winner will move on to face Democratic candidate Tom Holmes.
Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice: Current Chief Justice Tom Parker could not seek re-election due to a state law that sets an age limit of 70 for judges. Justice Sarah Stewart and former state senator Bryan Taylor are both seeking the Republican nomination. The winner will face Democratic candidate, Montgomery Co. Circuit Judge Greg Griffin, in November.
Montgomery County Commission District 3: Commissioner Ronda Walker decided not to seek re-election to the seat which she has held since 2014. Republicans Justin Castanza and Cedric Coley hope to replace her.
Montgomery County School Tax Renewal: Voters are deciding whether to renew a 3.5 millage tax to support schools. It was last renewed in 2004. Montgomery Public Schools gets about $11 million annually from this tax, while Pike Road Schools gets $1.2 million.
