The National Republican Congressional Committee views the 2nd congressional district as an 'official target' for national Republicans this fall.
Republican Caroleene Dobson, candidate for the open Alabama congressional district 2 seat in November, speaks during a Mobile GOP meeting on Monday, July 1, 2024, at Government Plaza in downtown Mobile, Ala.Alabama’s 2nd congressional district was drawn to give a Democratic politician the advantage, but the National Republican Congressional Committee is going all-in on its candidate 99 days before the Nov. 5 election.
The announcement means that the national campaign arms of both major political parties will be duking it out in a rare competitive congressional seat in Alabama. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee announced its involvement in the race in late May. Moore decided not to run in the 2nd district, and instead opted to run in the redrawn and heavily conservative 1st congressional district. Moore defeated U.S. Rep. Jerry Carl, R-Mobile, during the March 5 Republican primary, and is poised to remain in Congress.
According to FiveThirtyEight’s analysis of polls asking people which party they would support in a generic congressional election, Dobson raised over $545,000, with the bulk coming from individual contributions. Figures raised over $475,000.
