Alabama Primary Election Results: Voters in six US states- Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Alabama, Oregon, and Idaho are casting their votes in important primary elections and that could play a major role for who is going to control Congress. People are also looking at this as a kind of test for how much influence President Donald Trump has within the Republican Party, plus it might set the tone for American politics going into the 2026 midterm elections and even the 2028 presidential race. In these contests, there are a number of attention-grabbing candidates backed by Trump, internal party disagreements, arguments about voting boundaries and rules, and then the slow arrival of fresh political leaders that are suddenly more visible on the national stage.

 Alabama Primary Election Results

Alabama’s primary elections are getting a lot of confusion lately, after Gov Kay Ivey decided to push back voting in four congressional districts until August because there are legal fights over where the district lines actually are. 

The ballots cast on Tuesday in Alabama’s 1st, 2nd, 6th, and 7th congressional districts might not end up counting since the state is being told it has to redraw the district maps after a recent US Supreme Court decision tied to voting rights laws. And there is a lot of uncertainty on top of that. 

Still, despite all of this voting continues as scheduled in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th districts and there are Senate and local elections happening across the state. 

President Donald Trump has backed Rep. Barry Moore in Alabama’s Senate race the one to replace Sen. Tommy Tuberville who is now running for governor.
