Alabama's non-partisan municipal elections are a total joke and need to be moved to align with partisan races for state and federal office.The elections are full of misinformation and apathy, make them partisan, and that changes.The two-party system is not perfect, but it is far better than the guessing game taking place in the off-year municipal elections.

Forget about a Charlie Kirk statue at the U.S. Capitol, statues on college campuses are more fitting
There is talk of a statue honoring Charlie Kirk at the U.S. Capitol, but that seems unlikely despite how appropriate it might be.Listen to the college kids that Kirk spoke to every day, and you will see that a statue on college campuses makes far more sense, because the anger they will create only proves Kirk's entire point.A statue there would honor Kirk and show how depraved his enemies are as they attack a statue to free speech.
