ALABAMA —  Republican candidate Kristin Nelson was the clear winner in the runoff election for the Republican primary for the District 38 seat, recently vacated by Debbie Wood.

Nelson carried Chambers County with 80% of the vote and received nearly 55% of the Lee County vote. Her opponent in the runoff was Garrett Dixon.

“I want to thank all of my supporters across House District 38 who came out and voted today,” Nelson said in an interview with Gator Media. “Serving the great folks of Chambers and Lee Counties is second nature to me, and I’ll represent their voices in Montgomery with honesty and integrity. House District 38 has a great legacy of strong representation in Montgomery, and I plan on fully continuing that legacy.”
