WATCH: Huntsville voters share some surprising thoughts on primary elections

(YH News)

Alabama voters went to the polls June 5 to vote in primaries that will decide Republican and Democrat candidates who will battle it out for offices including governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general and more.

Yellowhammer News spoke with Huntsville voters, some of whom gave some pretty surprising answers when asked, “Who did you vote for?”

WATCH:

Three themes emerged among the voters interviewed:

— Mayor Tommy Battle is a local hero.
— Multiple voters didn’t decide who to vote for until they were filling out their ballot.
— For some, this election wasn’t about a specific candidate; rather, the right and “civic duty” to vote.
