Alabama Lt. Governor Will Ainsworth has endorsed Garrett Dixon for the open House District 38 seat, calling him “exactly the kind of person we need serving in Montgomery.”

Ainsworth announced his support on Facebook and X, praising Dixon’s conservative values and their shared background in the Alabama Farmers Federation.

“Garrett Dixon is EXACTLY the kind of person we need serving in Montgomery—conservative, devout, and honest to his core,” Ainsworth wrote.

“We met as young farmers in the Alabama Farmers Federation, and I knew then he was the real deal. Join me in supporting Garrett Dixon for a better Alabama.”

Dixon, a conservative Republican and longtime cotton and peanut farmer, launched his campaign earlier this week.

A lifelong resident of Chambers County and a graduate of Auburn University, Dixon said he intends to bring a business-minded approach to Montgomery and be a strong voice for rural communities in Chambers and Lee counties.
