VIDEO: Brooks ‘substantially the frontrunner’ for Senate seat, Sewell passes on running as Democrats seek their candidate, Ivey to lean on businesses for masking and more on Alabama Politics This Week …

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and political consultant Mecca Musick take you through Alabama’s biggest political stories, including:

— Is political analyst Dr. Jess Brown correct in declaring U.S. Representative Mo Brooks (R-Huntsville) “substantially the frontrunner?”

— With U.S. Representative Terri Sewell (D-Birmingham) and former U.S. Senator Doug Jones (D-AL) saying they won’t run for U.S. Senate, is there anyone left in the Alabama Democratic Party who can take on the fight?

— Will Alabama businesses take tell citizens to “mask up” as statewide and local mandates go away?

Jackson and Musick are joined by political consultant, and former APTW host, Lisa Handback to discuss the issues facing the state of Alabama this week.

Jackson closes the show with a “Parting Shot” directed at people who continue to push for remote learning after we have learned that in-person schooling is safe and those being harmed by keeping students can least afford to lose ground.

Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 7-11 AM weekdays on WVNN and on Talk 99.5 from 10AM to noon.
