Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) won Alabama’s gubernatorial race against Democratic former Sen. Doug Jones, continuing Republicans’ stranglehold on the state.

Tuberville won 52.1% of the vote compared to Jones’s 47.9%. The result was narrower than expected, as Tuberville was leading Jones by double digits in every poll before the election. Trump won Alabama by 30 points in 2024, his third victory in the state.
