Alabama Republican Party Chairman Terry Lathan made the following statement regarding the 2018 Alabama Primary Runoff Election:
“Congratulations to our candidates who won their races in Tuesday’s runoff election. We are grateful to over one thousand of our Alabama Republican patriot servants who passionately stepped into the arena of public service. It is a daunting task for them to spend time away from their family, businesses, careers and personal lives as volunteers to serve our great state and nation. We salute them.”
“We are ready to come together as one team as we work to defeat the Democrats this November. A vote for an Alabama Republican is a vote for: historic tax cuts, a robust economy, national and border security, strong pro-life legislation and slashed government regulations. Our party united two years ago to elect President Donald Trump. Since then, we have confirmed one U.S. Supreme Court Justice and are actively working to confirm another. We would not have this chance with a Democrat in the White House.”
“As a reminder, every Alabama Democrat signed on to support their party’s liberal progressive platform when they qualified for office with this pledge: ‘I hereby certify that I am a Democrat and that I subscribe to the Principles of the Democratic Party of Alabama.’ We will remind the voters of that blue pledge in red Alabama.”
“We will not stand idly by and let the Democrat Party try to further divide our state and nation to implement policies that fail our citizens. The 2016 election changed the path of our nation for the better. If Alabama Republicans stand together again to support our team, we will repeat that success this November.”
“We will continue to keep America great while we protect our sweet home, Alabama.”
