Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey signs primary bills as state seeks to redistrict
"The Alabama Legislature Friday gave final approval to legislation that would set new primary elections for a handful of congressional districts and two Montgomery-area state Senate districts if a federal court allows the state to use maps it has ruled was discriminatory against Black voters.
The House Friday approved SB 1, sponsored by Sen. Chris Elliott, R-Josephine, authorizes a special primary election for Alabama Senate Districts 25 and 26 near the state capital. The bill passed on a 75-29 vote.
A few hours later, the Senate passed HB 1, sponsored by Rep. Chris Pringle, R-Mobile which would allow new primaries for certain congressional districts in the state if the U.S. Supreme Court agrees to lift an injunction against the state redrawing its congressional lines until 2030."
