Hold onto your hats, ChumCity! Senator Tommy Tuberville is gearing up for a run at Alabama's Governor's mansion in 2026, and he's already snagged a major endorsement! The Club for Growth PAC has thrown its weight behind Tuberville (who boasts a killer 93% lifetime rating with them). They previously backed him in his successful 2020 Senate bid, where he trounced incumbent Doug Jones. Interesting tidbit: The Club initially supported Jeff Sessions but flipped to Tuberville after Trump gave him the thumbs-up back in 2020. Smart move, maybe? "Coach Tuberville is a champion for good ol' common sense and fiscal responsibility," says Club for Growth PAC President David McIntosh. He thinks Tuberville will cut taxes, promote school freedom, and generally be awesome for Alabama. Looks like the path to the Governor's office just got a lot clearer. Lt. Gov. Will Ainsworth, once considered a major contender, announced he won't be running in 2026. That effectively opens the field for Tuberville. Tuberville's gubernatorial ambitions mean Alabama's U.S. Senate seat will also be up for grabs in 2026! Expect a heated primary election showdown on May 19, 2026. Tuberville is expected to officially announce his gubernatorial run next Tuesday in Auburn. Get ready for the campaign kickoff!Tuberville Gets Early Nod for '26 Gov Run!
