In the Huntsville AL area, Democrats have flipped state House District 10 tonight. In 2022, Marilyn Lands (D) lost by about 7 points. This time, she won by almost 25%, sweeping nearly everything.
This was a stronger margin here than Doug Jones's 23-point spread from 2017.

I should have worked a pun into this tweet --"the Land(s) is all blue now!"--but oh well.
3/8
Racially, the district isn't *that* far off from AL as a whole-- 57W/22B/10H vs 63W/27B/5H statewide. Though HD-10 has a 7% Asian population (2% for AL overall).
But, per @Redistricter, close to *half* the residents over 25 have a college degree. AL overall is more like 27%.
4/8
Also, going with this, per DRA, it was roughly 60%-39% for McCain and gave Romney 62%. Trump won it by 14 in 2016, but was down to carrying by 1 in 2020--so def. one area of AL moving the wrong way for Rs longer term.

fair, but such is the nature of special elections-- can't project everything forward totally.

ofc it happens that, as a Louisiana/LSU boy, some of my most popular maps are of Alabama.

Unofficial results, but #ALSen#ALSen by Congressional District. Left is 2016, right is 2017. Doug Jones turned HRC's 28% loss into a 1.5% win while *only* carrying #AL07#AL07. Suburban #AL06#AL06 has the biggest swing to Jones (he improved 40% from Clinton).

Democrat Marilyn Lands wins District 10 special election

MADISON, Ala. (WHNT) – District 10 voters elected Democrat Marilyn Lands to the Alabama House of Representatives on Tuesday.
Lands won 62.31% of the vote with 100% of precincts reporting, according to results provided by the Alabama Secretary of State’s office. Her opponent, Republican Teddy Powell, received 37.50% of the vote.
Results: Presidential nominations, number of statewide races on Primary Election ballot
Throughout her campaign, Lands said she was prepared to support women’s reproductive rights, including both access to abortion care and infertility treatments.
“It’s a victory for women, and it’s a victory for families,” Lands said. “We are sending a message to Montgomery and across the country that Alabama is going to move forward.”
Upon her arrival in the state capital, Lands said she is going to work to repeal Alabama’s no exception ban on abortion.
“I want to protect IVF and contraception,” Lands said. ” I also want to be a champion for healthcare and mental healthcare.”
Lands, a lifelong resident of Huntsville, has worked in business administration. She is currently a Licensed Professional Counselor who has previously collaborated to pass mental health legislation supporting children in the state.
“I really feel like we need somebody down in Montgomery who understands mental health issues,” Lands said.
She said the next step is expanding Medicaid and working to improve medical access in rural communities.
“Alabama is changing, North Alabama in particular, but other parts too,” Lands said. “I think we’re ready for something different. We’re tired of Alabama being 40th and 50th for key metrics. We can do better. We are better.”
Lands said she is ready to support education and economic development opportunities.

“If you go to the rallies, you'll see that the rallies are smaller. And if you look at registrations in the Republican Party… they are down… The combination of those two things does not bode well” for Donald Trump, says his former communications director @Scaramucci

Man just doesn’t seem to understand that abortion rights is a big issue.
