Alabama GOP Pushes to Close Primaries | Birmingham News
Description
Alabama’s GOP chairman Scott Stadthagen is pushing hard to shut down open primaries after a Democrat urged liberals to vote in Republican contests — a move he says undermines party integrity. The State Executive Committee unanimously backed the effort, aiming to ensure only registered Republicans pick the GOP nominee. Though a similar bill narrowly missed passage last session, Stadthagen remains optimistic it’ll succeed this time, citing recent events as proof of urgency. The goal? To keep party decisions within party lines and protect the will of registered members from outside interference.
