He loves drinking, cussing and Trump. And he’s running for Senate in Alabama.
Updated: Mar. 03, 2022, 8:16 a.m. |Victor Williams, who lives in Fairhope, is running for U.S. Senate in Alabama. Victor Williams is such a devoted follower of former President Donald Trump that he maintains he lost his job as an assistant law professor over that devotion.
at the Conservative Political Action Conference last week in Orlando where he had a vendor booth. The objective is to “claw back,” Williams said, the Democrat Party from the “Marxists, anarchists and academic thugs” to be more like the party of former presidents Harry Truman and John Kennedy. And to show the “anti-Trump ilk of the Republican establishment” that Trump will owe them nothing if reelected in 2024.
Shelby is retiring next year and Britt is among a field of six Republican candidates -- Lillie Boddie, U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks, Karla Dupriest, Mike Durant and Jake Schafer -- seeking to replace him. “The people of Alabama will see right through this and treat it as the bizarre and untruthful ploy that it is,” Britt campaign spokesman Sean Ross said in a statement. “Katie has been tirelessly running a grassroots campaign and is the only candidate to have visited all 67 counties already. While her opponents have received most of their funding from outside of Alabama, Katie is proud that 87% of the funds she has raised came from Alabamians.
Williams said he is encouraging Republican voters to “crossover” to vote in the Democratic primary and support his campaign. A 2017 Alabama law stipulates that if a voter votes in a primary election, they cannot vote in another party’s primary runoff – meaning, for example, that if a voter cast a ballot for Williams in the Democratic primary, the voter could not vote if there was a runoff in the Republican primary.
