Alabama's 1st congressional district
Coverage: this seat is included in the 2026 national listing. State candidate coverage class: acquisition attempted and blocked; official source recorded in the ledger. Absence of candidate rows is not evidence that a race has no candidates — see the coverage ledger.
Candidate source
Candidate source: Alabama Secretary of State — Elections — State Certifications of General Candidates (Democratic + Republican, congressional districts + statewide 2026 General) (retrieved 2026-09-28). Absence of a candidate row is never evidence that a race has no candidates.
How the candidate list was checked
Rows read from the official source: 0 · published here: 0 · left out by rule: 0 · held back for review: 0. Official certifications located and archived (5 PDFs: Dem/Rep congressional-district certifications, 2026 General party certifications + amendment). All are image-only scans — pypdf extracts zero text (no text layer). OCR is not admissible structured evidence under the source rules, so no rows were emitted from scans.
Boundaries and sources
County–district classifications come from official block-assignment files, cross-checked against Census representations; render geometry is display-only.
