The redrawn Alabama 2nd congressional district map, cleared by the Supreme Court for use in 2026, reduced the Black voting-age population share and shifted the seat toward a Republican lean consistent with the 2024 presidential results. State Rep. Rhett Marques secured the GOP nomination in the August special primary with endorsements from President Trump and Sen. Katie Britt, positioning him as the frontrunner against incumbent Rep. Shomari Figures. Recent polling shows a statistical tie in head-to-head matchups, yet broader forecasts rate the race Lean or Likely Republican due to the district's fundamentals and Marques' established conservative legislative record. Campaign activity has included attack messaging on voting records and policy contrasts, with both candidates maintaining competitive fundraising. Traders' consensus reflects the structural advantages for the Republican nominee heading into the November general election.
