U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville announced his campaign finance committee on Wednesday morning in his bid for Governor of Alabama in 2026.

The committee is already off to a blockbuster start ahead of the May 19 primary and November 3 general election.

According to the latest campaign finance reports filed with the Alabama Secretary of State’s office, Tuberville’s campaign warchest sits at $7,528,958.74 while Democrat challenger Doug Jones’ cash-on-hand total lingers below $900,000.

“I learned back when I was coaching that you are only as good as the team around you,” Tuberville (R-Auburn) said.

“I’m honored to have some of the most successful business owners from across Alabama serving on my campaign finance committee. Their generosity, commitment to our mission, and deep relationships across Alabama have put us in the position to earn the Republican nomination in May and to beat Doug Jones again in November.”
