Alabama Republican Party Chairman John Wahl has been re-elected for another two-year term.
Wahl’s election was by acclamation, receiving the full support of the 400-plus member State Executive Committee at the organization’s winter meeting Saturday.
“I am incredibly humbled by the support of my fellow committee members, and the trust they have put in me,” he said. “I look forward to working with them, as well as our County Parties and Auxiliary organizations, to promote and defend our conservative values.
“The Alabama Republican Party has had an amazing two years, and I am looking forward to seeing what we can accomplish together during my second term.”
Wahl expressed his gratitude for his family, friends, and his staff.
“I would also like to thank so many of my friends and family for their support,” he said. “It’s not always easy being in the spotlight, and I am blessed to have so many people standing by my side.
“I especially want to thank the ALGOP staff for their hard work. They help make my vision a reality, and I am grateful for what they do.”
Recently elected vice chairman of the Republican National Committee, Wahl addressed the need for change in leadership on a national level.
“Our families are struggling under the weight of inflation, lower wages, and so many other flawed policies coming out of the Biden administration,” he said. “We need leaders who will put the American people first, and defend the way of life our founding fathers envisioned for our great nation.
In his first term as chairman, Wahl helped host the President Trump rally in Cullman, the largest political event in state history. In the 2022 election cycle, he helped to flip 50 seats. Since taking office, Wahl helped raise more than $2.8 million for the party.
