Find Your Polling Place for June 3 and Learn About Alabama’s New Voter ID Requirement
Primary elections in Alabama are Tuesday, June 3.
One key race around Birmingham is the Republican primary for the sixth Congressional District. Seven candidates are fighting to represent the Republican party in the general election in that race. For Democrats, among the hottest races are the first and second district for the Jefferson County Commission. Election experts are forecasting a lower-than-normal turnout Tuesday because Alabama doesn’t have a competitive race for governor.
