The Republican nominee, Guy Hunt, won election after Democrat Charlie Graddick solicited Republican crossover votes in his runoff primary election against Bill Baxley. Graddick won the runoff, but the Alabama Democratic Party threw out the runoff results and made Baxley the Democrat nominee. Then, Hunt, a political nobody at the time, proceeded to beat Baxley handily in the general election. It was obviously a backlash vote. I don’t think Alabama has elected a Democrat governor since.

Siegleman was convicted on a corruption charges.
