DOTHAN, Ala. – Key Republican races in Alabama are too close to call headed into Tuesday’s primary. That’s why the undecided vote is vital.

Key Republican races in Alabama are too close to call headed into Tuesday’s primary. That’s why the undecided vote is vital.

Kaylene Shay of Dothan is one of those struggling to decide what candidates to choose.

“Thank goodness we have this kind of venue to see them and to hear them,” she said.

Shay referred to a capacity crowd at the Houston County Republican Women’s Group, where candidates wooed voters on Thursday.

“I came a whole lot closer to making a decision,” she said afterwards.

Ms. Shay said she had no intention of voting for Tommy Tuberville—the only Senate candidate to attend the HCRW meeting. After hearing him speak, she’s leaning heavily his way.

That race, per polls, is close and Tuberville, like other candidates, needs every vote he can get.

So do as candidates for the Second District Congressional seat, who all spoke to HCRW.

There are thousands of Alabamians who, like Shay, haven’t made up their minds. Most polls show 20 percent of potential voters are still undecided.
