Alabama Supreme Court ends Tuberville residency challenge

Original: Alabama Supreme Court upholds dismissal of Sen. Tuberville residency challenge

The Alabama Supreme Court has upheld the dismissal of a legal challenge questioning whether Senator Tommy Tuberville meets residency requirements to hold his Senate seat. The court let stand a lower court's decision throwing out the case, effectively ending the effort to remove or disqualify him over claims he does not actually live in Alabama. The ruling closes a dispute that has trailed the former Auburn football coach since his 2020 election.

Why now: The state's highest court has just issued its final ruling in a politically charged challenge to a sitting US senator.
