Secretary of State Wes Allen Files Legal Motion to Fast-Track Redistricting Case

Wes Allen, Alabama’s Secretary of State, has formally requested that the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit expedite consideration of Alabama’s state Senate redistricting case in light of the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision in Louisiana v. Callais. “As the appellant in both of Alabama’s redistricting cases, I am taking decisive legal action, in coordination with Attorney General Steve Marshall, to seek expedited judicial review,” Allen said. “Timely resolution is critical to provide clarity and stability for Alabama’s election process. The State has a primary role in drawing its legislative districts through its elected representatives, and continued delay prolongs federal court oversight beyond what is necessary.” The request comes as Governor Kay Ivey has called a special session to ensure Alabama is positioned to act promptly as courts resolve outstanding redistricting litigation at both the state and federal levels. “Alabama stands ready to move forward. With the Governor’s special session underway, we are prepared to act promptly to implement state Senate maps consistent with governing law and return map-drawing authority to the Legislature,” Allen said. Wes Allen is Alabama’s 54th Secretary of State. The Secretary of State is Alabama’s Chief Elections Official. Additionally, Alabama law gives the Secretary of State more than 1,000 different duties.

Following a decision by the United States Supreme Court restoring Alabama’s congressional districts to the maps enacted by the Alabama Legislature, Secretary of State Wes Allen issues the below statements regarding the Court’s ruling and its impact on Alabama elections. “Tonight the United States Supreme Court ruled in my favor but, more importantly, ruled in favor of the State of Alabama. By returning our elections to the congressional maps approved by the Legislature instead of the maps drawn by unelected bureaucrats, this unprecedented wrong has been made right,” Allen explained. In light of tonight’s decision by the US Supreme Court, the party certifications of qualified candidates from May 26 will be officially certified by the Secretary of State’s Office and issued to counties tomorrow, June 3. The Secretary of State’s Office will continue coordinating with county election officials, boards of registrars, and election vendors regarding implementation of the Court’s order and any necessary voter district updates associated with the congressional special primary election scheduled for August 11, 2026. “This decision represents a significant triumph for Alabama, for our Constitution, and for every person who believes our elections should be decided by our elected Legislature rather than liberal special interest groups. I will continue fighting to preserve election integrity and ensuring that Alabama votes are cast in districts that reflect the will of the People,” Allen said.
