The 2022 United States House of Representatives elections in Alabama were held on November 8, 2022, to elect the seven U.S. representatives from the state of Alabama, one from each of the state's seven congressional districts. The elections coincided with other elections to the House of Representatives, elections to the United States Senate, and various state and local elections.

Primaries in Alabama took place on May 24. If any race resulted in no candidate receiving over 50% of the vote, runoff elections would occur on June 21.

Background

[edit]

Following redistricting as a result of the 2020 United States census, the Republican-controlled Alabama Legislature adopted a new congressional map in the autumn of 2021. The map drew one of Alabama's seven congressional districts with an African-American majority population; a single African-American majority congressional district had been the case for over 30 years. Three federal judges denied this map on January 24, 2022, stating that Alabama, which had an African-American population of 27% as of 2022, needed two congressional districts that were likely to elect African-American representatives, in accordance with the Voting Rights Act of 1965. John Wahl, the chairman of the Alabama Republican Party, said he expected the court's decision to be appealed.[1] The office of the Attorney General of Alabama began the process of an appeal on January 25, 2022.[2] The qualifying deadline for congressional candidates was also extended from January 28 to February 11.[3]

The New York Times predicted that the appeal would go to the U.S. Supreme Court to address the practice of racial gerrymandering in the United States. If a second African-American majority district was upheld and passed, it would have been a significant pick-up for Democrats in Alabama.[1] In response to the federal ruling, Representative Jerry Carl stated during a radio interview that his campaign was considering alternative strategies in the event that he was forced to run against fellow Representative Barry Moore.[4] Chairman Wahl stated on January 28 that the Republican Party would plan to win all seven congressional seats if a new map created two competitive seats with slight African-American majorities, rather than one district guaranteed for a Democratic victory.[5]

Ultimately, the case went to the Supreme Court, which ruled in a 5–4 decision on February 7, 2022, that Alabama's request for a stay would be granted, halting the three-judge panel's decision, upholding the state's original map and signifying a victory for Republicans in Alabama.[6] Justice Brett Kavanaugh, joined by Samuel Alito, wrote a majority opinion, with Elena Kagan authoring a dissent.[7][8]

The decision created some confusion over whether the extension for the filing deadline had been overturned as well; Secretary of State John Merrill clarified that the deadline would be left up to the parties.[9] While the Democratic Party confirmed that it would keep its deadline as February 11,[10] the Republican deadline was left unclear. This led to disputes over the eligibility for candidates to qualify for Republican primaries, specifically Jeff Coleman in District 2, and Jamie Aiken in District 6.[9][11] Republican chairman John Wahl stated that the party would commit to state laws and party bylaws regarding the controversy.[12] Following legal action, the U.S. District Court for Northern Alabama ruled against Coleman on February 25, 2022, establishing that it could not force the Alabama Republican Party to list the candidate's name on the ballot.[13]

The case eventually led to a Supreme Court ruling in Allen v. Milligan during the 2024 election cycle, in which the lower court's ruling was upheld and a second African-American majority district was mandated, marking a major reversal and victory for Democratic voting rights activists.[14]

The 2nd district encompasses most of the Montgomery metropolitan area, and stretches into the Wiregrass Region in the southeastern portion of the state, including Andalusia, Dothan, Greenville, and Troy. The incumbent was Republican Barry Moore, who was elected with 65.2% of the vote in 2020.[15]

Businessman and 2020 candidate Jeff Coleman attempted to launch a primary challenge against Moore, and even purchased an advertisement campaign including airtime during Super Bowl LVI in local markets. However, a federal panel ruled against his candidacy, as he qualified after the Supreme Court upheld Alabama's original congressional map and qualifying dates.[33]
