Rep. Barry Moore holds the strongest position among candidates in Alabama’s Republican primary for the open U.S. Senate seat, driven by consistent leads in recent statewide polling and endorsements from President Trump and Vice President Vance. Polls conducted in early May show Moore ahead of Jared Hudson and Attorney General Steve Marshall, though roughly 40 percent of likely voters remain undecided ahead of the May 19 contest. Hudson has gained ground through strong fundraising and appeal in the Birmingham area, while Marshall benefits from statewide name recognition as the sitting attorney general. With no candidate approaching a majority, the contest is widely expected to advance to a June runoff, where Moore’s institutional support and early momentum position him as the clear favorite to secure the nomination.
