Byrne has taken his name out of contention.

AG Luther Strange and Rep. Martha Roby are possibilities.

Also: Luther Strange would be a pretty controversial pick for placeholder, considering that Strange is currently investigating Bentley's corruption.

If there is any Alabama Republican that Democrats could beat - it might be Strange.

Who's the most Liberal Democrat who could win in a Special Election?

I mean the only name I've heard that could even compete that isn't washed up is Walter Maddox.

I don't know. But Strange is a surprise, he's pretty old, so he won't be around for too long. This, combined with Shelby all but certain to retire in 2022 will be a big blow to Alabama, which currently has lots of seniority, which they heavily rely on for federal funds.

Strange isnt surprising considering how craven Governor Bentley is about stopping the investigation into his corruption. Strange was investigating Governor Bentley, and with Strange's pick to the Senate, Bentley gets to pick a more favorable Attorney General.

Carole Smitherman, Paul DeMarco, Arthur Orr, or Phil Williams could all be appointed.

i wasn't asking.
