Tuberville Kicks Off Race for Alabama Governor

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) on Tuesday launched a website to campaign for governor of Alabama in 2026, ending months of speculation about his political future, AL.com reports.

Cook Political Report: “Though questions linger about the exact nature of Tuberville’s residence in the state he hopes to lead, few operatives in either party expect them to seriously halt his drive toward the end zone.”

NBC News: “Tuberville is seeking to succeed Gov. Kay Ivey, a fellow Republican who is finishing her second term and cannot run for a third consecutive term.”
