Sen. Scott Beason, R-Gardendale, who announced only a week ago that he would not seek re-election to his state senate seat, will be a last-minute qualifier to run for the U.S. House of Representatives in Alabama’s 6th Congressional District.
Multiple sources close to Beason told Yellowhammer by phone today that Beason did not make a final decision on his plans until this morning, but is now full-speed-ahead with his Congressional campaign.
He is expected to qualify at ALGOP headquarters in the next couple of hours. We will update this story as soon as it’s official.
