Former Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville won a United States Senate seat in Alabama on Tuesday night, an expected victory with a campaign run almost solely on a pro-Trump agenda.
Tuberville, 66, heads the Senate with no political experience. He ran a campaign in which his primary strategy was based around attaching himself to President Trump, not exposing any potential weaknesses and relying on his name recognition in the state. He didn’t debate his opponent, Democratic incumbent Doug Jones, and did little in terms expressing expansive knowledge of issues, speaking to the media and taking tangible political positions.
