Republicans’ Uphill Climb to Take State House
Over one-third of House races in the state do not have a Republican candidate. AP Story:
Republicans had promised a major effort to wrest control of the Legislature from Democrats, but left Democrats unchallenged in a number of races across the state, which could derail the GOP goal. Republicans have candidates in 69 of the 105 races in the Alabama House and would have to win all but 16 to take control of the House. Democrats currently hold a 62-43 majority in the House.
