Biography & Campaign Analysis

2026 race

Everett Wess, an attorney who has stood for office on several earlier occasions, is the Democratic nominee in the 2026 election for Alabama's seat in the United States Senate. The seat is open because the Republican incumbent, Tommy Tuberville, chose to run for governor of Alabama after one term.

The Democratic primary on May 19, 2026, went to a June 16 runoff, in which Wess defeated businessman Dakarai Larriett, taking 54.6% of the vote. In the November 3 general election he faces Barry Moore, a Republican member of Congress who won his own party's runoff against businessman Jared Hudson.
