Alabama Republican Party Chairman John Wahl issued the following statement:

“We had an extremely successful weekend and accomplished what we set out to do. I look forward to working with our candidates, elected officials, and voters to win races across the state of Alabama and help take back the House and Senate.

“Concerning the resolution in support of President Trump, the Mar-a-Lago raid is just one more example of the federal government holding Republicans and Democrats to different standards. This use of force was uncalled for and incredibly disrespectful of a former president. Our membership stands with President Trump as he faces this injustice.”
