The Alabama Democratic Party has had a rough time lately. Even though they should be working together, they’ve been busy fighting among themselves. Recently, they had to submit paperwork to get their candidates on the ballot for the upcoming November election. The deadline was last Friday, but the party waited until the last minute to file.
While the Alabama Republicans also filed their paperwork close to the deadline, they did it the day before. The Democratic National Committee (DNC) had even given Alabama more time to complete the filing. Despite this, the Alabama Democratic Party still filed on the very last day and then announced on Twitter that this was their plan all along.
However, after submitting the paperwork, the party had to go back and refile everything the same afternoon. They made a few minor changes, like adjusting the order of names on the forms and adding two important candidates, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, who were left off the list in the first filing.
It’s strange that a party claiming to be well-prepared would miss such important details. The DNC had already provided extra time to avoid mistakes, but the Alabama Democratic Party seemed more focused on internal disagreements. Just a week before, they threatened to send two competing delegations to the Democratic National Convention and even accused the DNC of racism.
Despite all the drama, the paperwork is now filed, and the forms were accepted. Alabama voters will have choices on the ballot this fall. However, the Alabama Democratic Party still needs to get its act together if it wants to be a strong competitor.
