With the victory by Shomari Figures, Alabama will most likely have two Black representatives in Congress at the same time for the first time in its history.
The Associated Press has called the Alabama District 2 Congressional election for Shomari Figures (D). Caroleene Dobson (R) took the stage and gave a speech late Tuesday night at her party at Fort Whiting in Mobile.
With Figures’ win, Democrats pick up a seat in the closely divided U.S. House. It also means that Alabama’s congressional delegation of seven representatives will include two Democrats and five Republicans.
Democrat Shomari Figures won election to a U.S. House seat representing Alabama on Thursday. Republican Rep. Barry Moore, who currently represents the district, is running in the neighboring 1st District after a federal court ordered Alabama to draw a new congressional district that ensured Black residents’ voting power.
Election Day is here in Alabama, and the state's voters will help decide the next president and the balance of power in Congress. Items on the ballot range from a state amendment, to a race for chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court, to a showdown for control of a newly redrawn congressional district.
