Rep. Barry Moore defeated fellow GOP Rep. Jerry Carl in the primary in Alabama’s 1st District Tuesday, bringing to a close a contentious member-vs.-member election.
Moore led Carl by more than 3 percentage points when The Associated Press called the race at 11:49 p.m. Eastern time with an estimated 95 percent of the vote counted.
A Republican in his second term, Moore campaigned as a loyal supporter of former President Donald Trump, touting his votes against supplemental funding for Ukraine and his support for a border wall.
