House District 12 Race Heads to the Wire!

Get ready, ChumCity! The special election saga in Alabama's House District 12 is about to reach its climax! After a nail-biting primary, Cindy Myrex and Clint Hollingsworth are set for a GOP runoff showdown tomorrow! One of them will be the next State Representative.

Myrex vs. Hollingsworth: Round Two

Cindy Myrex, a local realtor and newcomer to the political scene, almost clinched the win outright, missing it by just nine votes. Now, she's gearing up for one last push.

Clint Hollingsworth, a Cullman City Councilman since '08 and local business owner, says he's been pounding the pavement, making sure everyone knows he's the right choice.

Myrex's Strategy

Myrex is feeling confident, banking on her "faith, family, and freedom" platform. She's been hitting the doors hard and listening to what District 12 residents really care about. According to her, that means standing strong against things like SB322 and the Smith Lake annexation – something she says she's been against from the start.

Hollingsworth's Experience Pitch

Hollingsworth is playing up his experience. He says he's the guy who's ready to jump in on day one and actually get things done for the district. He is touting improving infrastructure, boost education, cut taxes, and stick to conservative values.

Money Talks

Both candidates have snagged some serious backing. Myrex got an endorsement and some cash from the Alabama Farmers Federation. But here's a twist! She also reported a large donation from a PAC linked to the state's teacher union. She also has missed deadlines for filing financial reports and has paid fines. She has raked in a solid chunk of change, but a lot of that comes from her own pocket.

Hollingsworth has got the backing of the Alabama business community, and his war chest is stuffed with cash from industry PACs.

Final Words

Myrex is asking for everyone to show up and promises she will show up for them in Montgomery. Hollingsworth wants everyone in District 12 to vote, and asks for their support, if elected, he will be honored.

Don't miss out on this important decision, ChumCity. Get out there and make your voice heard!
