The two Republican candidates in Alabama's U.S. Senate primary runoff on Tuesday can each say that at one point they had Donald Trump's endorsement in the race.
Two months later, Trump announced his endorsement of Brooks, rewarding the six-term congressman who had objected to the certification of the 2020 presidential election and spoke at the"Stop the Steal" rally that preceded the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. Brooks has been backed by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, both of whom campaigned with him. Britt comes into Tuesday's runoff with a fundraising advantage and a shiny new endorsement from Trump, which came a couple of weeks after the primary.
Raffensperger beat back a challenge in his May 24 primary from U.S. Rep. Jody Hice, who was endorsed by Trump. Trump made Raffensperger a top target for rebuffing his efforts to"find" enough votes to overturn Joe Biden's win in the state's 2020 presidential election.
