It's paywalled, so I don't know much about what it says, but the idea of "“mini grants,” which would come from breaking up existing grants" does not sound good! https://t.co/5eXMW3P3Wc via @statnews

A Doug Jones run for governor "will force Tuberville to say just how he will make Alabama better, how he’ll improve the lives of Alabamians," columnist @RoySJ writes. "All of them." 🔗: https://t.co/ZdU1dZK3gG

Competitive elections are at the foundation of democracy. No one should skip into the state's highest office without a challenge, especially one still growing moss on the bottom rung of almost every ladder. Alabama must do better. We must be better.

What's gross in Alabama continuing to seek Toforest Johnson's execution is the casual disregard to a widely supported innocence claim. The paid witness testimony has FALLEN APART. What should be a 5-alarm fire to fix this is simply status quo indifference.

For 24 years, Toforest Johnson has been on Alabama’s death row for a crime he did not commit. The State’s lawyers continue to seek his execution.
