Running as a Democrat, in a Trump +30 State.
Doug Jones, a white Democrat, pulled off one historic upset in Alabama nine years ago, in winning a US Senate seat. Now he is attempting another, in his race for governor.

"In Madison County, for example, Trump is now way, way upside down in favorable/unfavorable—more than 20 points. Tommy Tuberville is worse. The Democrats actually have a chance to pick up both state Senate seats."
Are you registered to vote? Do you have an alert set for Nov. 3rd -- Election Day?

"The crazy thing is...Jackson knows many of the people he has helped over the years aren’t voting for him. He’s a Democrat, after all, and self-identified conservatives can’t bring themselves to cross the aisle. Even for a man who crosses it without a second thought to help them."

What's this? Reasonableness is Alabama politics? Say it ain't so!
"But I will say this: Isn’t it nice to be sitting here talking about a serious topic and how two candidates for public office are taking it seriously, offering up serious proposals and laying out serious plans?"

Opinion | Could it be—an Alabama governor's race with substance?
Our political system only works if we have two viable choices. It's the only thing that forces the politicians to listen to the people.
