Former U.S. Sen. Doug Jones greeted thousands of loud supporters in Birmingham on Friday night to launch his longshot run to be elected governor of Alabama as a Democrat, promising to fight for a state lottery and Medicaid expansion if he’s elected.

Jones took repeated shots at Republican candidate U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville, who soundly defeated Jones in the 2020 U.S. Senate race to take away his seat.

They are expected to face off again in 2026, this time for the right to claim the governor’s mansion.

“Alabama’s not a stadium,” Jones said, taking a poke at Tuberville’s previous career as a college football coach.
