Democrat Marilyn Lands announced her candidacy for Alabama House District 10 outside the Madison County Courthouse on Sept. 12, 2023. On Tuesday afternoon, he applauded as a Democrat announced her candidacy for the seat he once held.

And Ball said he and Lands have long been friends – she ran his first campaign for the legislature in 2002. Lands made her announcement on the steps of the Madison County Courthouse in downtown Huntsville, introduced by Violet Edwards – the only Democrat on the county commission. “I grew up here, raised my family here and go to church here,” Lands said in brief remarks from the podium. “Today, I am proud to announce my campaign for District 10 because this is my home and I am your neighbor. District 10, you know me. I will be your voice and Montgomery. I will find solutions to our common problems and work to build trust and unity.”
