华盛顿讯——哥伦比亚广播公司新闻预计,众议员巴里·摩尔于周二晚间赢得阿拉巴马州共和党参议员席位初选 runoff,击败了政治新人、美国海军海豹突击队队员贾里德·哈德逊。
由于上月初选中没有候选人获得50%以上的选票,摩尔和哈德逊在周二的runoff中争夺提名。当时摩尔获得了近40%的选票,哈德逊赢得了近26%的支持率,阿拉巴马州总检察长史蒂夫·马歇尔遭到淘汰。
共和党人此次旨在接替参议员汤米·图珀维尔,后者已决定离开参议院,竞选州长职位。
自2021年起代表阿拉巴马州进入众议院的摩尔,凭借周二的runoff胜利顺利步入参议院。除前参议员道格·琼斯在2017年特别选举中获胜外,阿拉巴马州近三十年来从未选出过民主党籍参议员。且2024年特朗普总统以30个百分点的优势拿下了这个深红州。
此次选举堪称特朗普总统背书影响力持续存在的最新例证。特朗普先生在竞选期间支持摩尔,称其为“‘美国优先’爱国者和朋友,从一开始就站在我这边”。尽管哈德逊努力将自己定位为局外人与斗士,同时强调自己对总统“美国优先”议程的承诺,摩尔还是在周二的runoff中胜出。
作为保守派众议院自由核心小组的成员,摩尔以特朗普总统的坚定支持者身份参选,并自诩为2015年首位背书该总统的民选官员。
摩尔将在11月与 either 企业老板达卡拉·拉里特或律师埃弗雷特·韦斯对决,这两人在周二的民主党初选中争夺提名资格。

Trump-backed Rep. Barry Moore projected to win runoff in Alabama GOP Senate primary, aiming to replace Tuberville
June 16, 2026 / 11:09 PM EDT / CBS News
Washington — Rep. Barry Moore won the Republican Senate runoff in Alabama on Tuesday night, CBS News projects, defeating political newcomer and U.S. Navy SEAL Jared Hudson.
Moore and Hudson vied for the nomination in Tuesday’s runoff after no candidate was able to secure 50% of the votes in last month’s primary. At the time, Moore secured nearly 40% of the vote, while Hudson won almost 26%. Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall was eliminated.
The Republicans were seeking to replace Sen. Tommy Tuberville, who opted to leave the Senate and pursue the governor’s mansion.
Tuesday’s runoff victory puts Moore, who’s represented Alabama in the House since 2021, on a glidepath to the Senate. Outside of former Sen. Doug Jones’ victory in a 2017 special election, Alabama hasn’t elected a Democrat to the Senate in the last three decades. And President Trump won the ruby red state by 30 points in 2024.
The contest marked the latest example of the staying power of the president’s endorsement. Mr. Trump backed Moore in the race, calling him “an America First Patriot, and friend, who has been with me from the very beginning.” And despite Hudson’s efforts to position himself as an outsider and fighter, while also stressing his commitment to the president’s America First agenda, Moore won out in Tuesday’s runoff.
Moore, a member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, ran as a staunch supporter of Mr. Trump, and touts being the first elected official to endorse the president in 2015.
Moore will face off in November against either business owner Dakarai Larriett or attorney Everett Wess, who were vying for the Democratic nomination in a runoff Tuesday.
