Leading Democratic candidate in AL-02, Tabitha Isner, thanks the Alabama New South Coalition for their endorsement
Montgomery, AL – Tabitha Isner, leading democratic candidate for U.S. Congress in Alabama’s 2nd congressional district has been endorsed by the Alabama New South Coalition. The Alabama New South Coalition is an organization based in Montgomery, AL, that works to organize the community, educate voters, develop both youth and leaders, and encourage progressive legislation in the state. Each year, New South screens candidates and endorses those who they feel will best represent the people of Alabama.
This is only the beginning of change in Alabama. Democrats are on a roll in 2018, and that trend may continue in Alabama. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has identified 30 seats currently held by Republicans that they hope to flip, and Alabama’s 2nd Congressional district is one of the 30. Tabitha Isner, a pastor’s wife and early childhood policy expert, has taken a clear lead in this crowded race. Although a first-time candidate, she has raised more money than any of Rep. Roby’s other challengers. (Bobby Bright appears to have more money, but the vast majority of his funds are in the form of a personal loan to the campaign.) She has also opened campaign offices in both Montgomery and Dothan.
“It is so important that we all work together for a better future for our state.” Isner said. “The New South Coalition does incredible work to organize the community and work for lasting change for all. I am honored to carry their endorsement during this election cycle and will honor their concerns and hopes after I take office.”
