Your Congressional District May Have Changed:

You may not be voting in the same congressional district as previous years. The primary on March 5 is the first election in Alabama using the new, court-ordered congressional districts, meaning Semmes, Spring Hill, Midtown, Downtown, Tillman’s Corner and many other parts of Mobile are now District 2 instead of District 1.
