Alabama SB23 authorizes a special primary election for legislative or congressional districts if redistricting occurs too late for the normal primary.

Alabama SB23 addresses the timing of primary elections when legislative or congressional district boundaries are altered too late for the normal primary schedule. If such changes occur due to legislative action or court order, and the changes cannot be accommodated within the regular primary election timeline, the bill mandates a special primary election. This special election must be held by the last day of August. Candidates who were eligible for the regular primary remain eligible for the special primary, subject to party rules.
