Alabama GOP Headed for Fierce Senate Primary

“Alabama Republicans are heading for a dogfight in the state’s Senate primary, with GOP voters in the reddest of states set to forecast which of the party’s disparate wings could be ascendant in the November midterms,” The Hill reports.

“The nominating contest is largely a contest among Rep. Mo Brooks (R) and Katie Boyd Britt, the former chief of staff to retiring Sen. Richard Shelby (R), whose seat they are running to fill. Also in the fight is Mike Durant, a former Black Hawk pilot who was shot down in Somalia in 1993.”
