The Voice of Alabama Politics

Tuberville case, one-party factions and gun violence

Tuberville’s unresolved eligibility, voter disengagement, Republican factionalism and Montgomery violence reveal the forces reshaping Alabama’s political future this week now.

This week on “The Voice of Alabama Politics,” a court dismissed the challenge to Tommy Tuberville’s residency without deciding whether he meets Alabama’s constitutional qualifications to serve as governor.

Bill Britt, Susan Britt and Josh Moon examine the unresolved eligibility question, Alabama’s crisis of voter disengagement, the factions gaining influence under one-party rule and the broader failures surrounding the killing of a 6-year-old Montgomery girl.

Watch this week’s program for sharp analysis of who holds power in Alabama, how that power is being used and what these developments could mean for the state’s political future.
