Rep. Wadsworth represents Alabama House District 14 (portions of Jefferson, Walker and Winston Counties). In 2016 Wadsworth was the Trump elector for Alabama’s 4th Congressional District.

Wadsworth said in a statement:

“I was there in Ladd-Peeble stadium, on that stage in 2015 when Barry Moore was the very first elected official in Alabama to endorse Donald Trump’s candidacy. I can tell you that Barry Moore was the original Trump Republican, and went on to be a Trump delegate at the Republican convention in 2016. I followed Barry as the 4th elected Official to Endorse Donald Trump.

“Barry Moore has supported our President from day one, and I’m confident that he will continue to support President Trump and his agenda when he’s elected to Congress.

“I’m also confident that Barry Moore will continue to represent our conservative Alabama values just like he did when he served in the Alabama Legislature.

“That’s why I wholeheartedly endorse Barry Moore For Congress from Alabama’s second congressional district.”
