Barry Moore holds the strongest position in Alabama’s Republican primary for the open U.S. Senate seat, reflecting his endorsement from Donald Trump, backing from Senate leadership including John Thune and Tim Scott, superior fundraising, and significant outside spending. As a sitting U.S. representative, Moore benefits from established name recognition and county-level organization ahead of the May 19 primary. Jared Hudson, a former Navy SEAL, has climbed in recent surveys through grassroots momentum and issue focus, narrowing the gap with Moore while leaving roughly 40 percent of likely Republican voters undecided. Steve Marshall, the state attorney general, trails after earlier leads faded amid the resource imbalance. Traders view the outcome as likely but not certain given the short timeline and undecided bloc.
