- Judge dismisses lawsuit challenging Tuberville’s eligibility to run for Alabama governor
A judge dismissed a lawsuit challenging U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville's eligibility to run for Alabama governor, citing jurisdictional limits. The lawsuit claimed Tuberville did not meet Alabama's seven-year residency requirement, but the judge ruled she could not decide the matter before the general election. Tuberville's campaign and attorney praised the decision, while the plaintiffs' lawyer plans to appeal, alleging Tuberville resides in Florida.
