Listen to what everyone is saying before just posting crap if you know nothing about the race:
Bachus and Shelby are to rock-solid conservatives - they get so-so scores from the ACU etc. Their opponents are much more conservative even if they don’t have a chance in hell of winning.

The poster voted for the more conservative candidates. THAT IS WHAT HE IS SAYING!!!

I did the same thing, I voted for the most conservative candidate, I am not in Bacchus district but I did vote against Shelby. amd I voted for Roy Moore for Governor as Byrne (likely winner) is on the same par as those two, and Tim James while Conservative is somewhat of a froot loop.

Very close to what I meant. Their opponents may or may not be more conservative, but getting some votes in the primary will encourage people who are much more conservative to run against these entrenched encumbents in the future.

And I will support B achus and Shelby in the general election.

Did y'all see THIS on the ballot?

FOR STATE TREASURER
(Vote for One)
YOUNG BOOZER
GEORGE C. WALLACE, JR.

I have to tell you, between Ole George Wallace's son and a Young Boozer, I had to go with the politician with the more honest name!

If Roy Moore and Tim James are in the runoff that increases the chances by several hundred percent that the next governor will be a Dem.

Byrne is our best chance against Sparks, especially since Sparks has the advantage of having the most popular position on the most important political position in the state, a strong rural and North Alabama identity politics think and his childhood friend who will go around every campaign stop in the state singing Mountain Music and Dixieland Delight to help get him elected.
