Election Guide
Make Informed Choices at the Ballot Box.
Alabama Policy Action provides voters with the information they need to evaluate candidates and offices. Our goal is to help voters understand what candidates stand for so they can make informed decisions at the ballot box.
Get to know the candidates running for office and how they rank on conservative values.
Alabama poised to make dramatic change to primary voting. The question is – who foots the bill?
As Alabama lawmakers grapple with the future of primary elections, the debate returns to a simple question with potentially costly implications: Should taxpayers foot the bill of a closed primary?
