AL-SEN: Alabama Rep. Barry Moore (R) announces run for Senate

Rep. Barry Moore (R-Ala.) launched a campaign Tuesday for the Alabama Senate seat being vacated by Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.).

In an announcement video, Moore touted being the first elected official in the country to endorse Donald Trump for president in 2015.

“I didn’t wait to see which way the wind was blowing,” the lawmaker said. “I stood with him from the very beginning, and I’ve stood with him every step of the way in Congress.”

Tuberville, the former Auburn University football coach who joined the Senate in 2021, is leaving the upper chamber to run for governor of Alabama.
