FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
May 12, 2026
Hueytown, AL — Republican congressional candidate Case Dixon issued the following statement Tuesday after Gov. Kay Ivey announced an August 11 special primary for Alabama’s 1st, 2nd, 6th, and 7th Congressional Districts after the U.S. Supreme Court paved the way for the state to use the Legislature’s 2023 congressional map.
Dixon said the extended timeline gives him additional opportunity to continue traveling the district and earning the support of voters across Alabama’s 6th Congressional District.
“Over the past several months, I’ve had the privilege of meeting thousands of people across this district, hearing their concerns, and sharing my vision for the future of our country,” Dixon said. “Over the next three months, I will continue working every single day to earn the trust, support, and vote of the people of this district.”
Dixon also encouraged voters to still participate in Alabama’s May 19 primary elections despite the congressional primary being moved to August.
“I want to strongly encourage every eligible voter to still go vote on May 19,” Dixon said. “There are vitally important races on the ballot that will help shape the future of Alabama and our country.”
Under the updated congressional map, portions of southern Elmore County will no longer remain in Alabama’s 6th Congressional District.
“It has truly been an honor to spend time in southern Elmore County and earn the support of so many wonderful people there,” Dixon said. “While I regret that I may no longer have the opportunity to represent many of those communities under the updated district lines, I will always be grateful for the kindness and encouragement I received along the way.”
“This campaign is far from over,” Dixon said. “I humbly ask for your continued prayers, support, and help sharing our message.”
