Sen. Tommy Tuberville Sets Sights on Alabama Governorship in 2026

Senator Tommy Tuberville has officially thrown his hat into the ring for the Alabama governorship in 2026, launching his campaign website on Tuesday and quelling the speculation that has swirled around his ambitions for the state’s highest office. He is expected to make a formal announcement on Fox News later today.

Tuberville seeks to succeed the termed-out Republican Governor Kay Ivey and is already recognized as the frontrunner in this predominantly Republican state, especially as other potential GOP contenders have chosen not to enter the race. His entry into the gubernatorial contest also paves the way for an open Senate seat in Alabama during the upcoming midterms.

Even before Tuberville officially declared his candidacy, his intentions had begun to reshape the Republican landscape. Support from influential GOP groups, such as the Club for Growth, came early, leading other would-be candidates, including Lt. Gov. Will Ainsworth, to withdraw from consideration.

With a background as a college football coach at institutions like Auburn University and the University of Cincinnati, Tuberville is relatively new to the political arena. He secured the Republican nomination for Senate in 2020 by defeating former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions, aided by President Donald Trump’s endorsement, which came after Trump expressed dissatisfaction with Sessions.

In the 2020 election, Tuberville triumphed over incumbent Democratic Senator Doug Jones, restoring the seat to Republican control. This was no small feat, as Jones had achieved a surprising victory in a special election in 2017, making him the first Democrat to represent Alabama in decades after Sessions vacated the seat to become Trump’s attorney general.

As a first-term senator, Tuberville has aligned himself closely with Trump, framing his gubernatorial campaign as an extension of Trump’s “America First” ethos. This Senate seat is one that Republicans are keen to retain as they strive to maintain their majority in the upcoming midterm elections.

Meanwhile, Doug Jones is reportedly contemplating another run for office, with speculation swirling around his potential candidacy for either the Senate or the governorship.

One significant challenge looming over Tuberville’s campaign revolves around Alabama’s constitutional requirement for a seven-year residency for the governor’s position. Tuberville has publicly defended his eligibility, asserting that he meets the necessary criteria to run.
