[1] Primary election results can be obtained from the Alabama Secretary of State's website.

Following the 2018 election cycle, Republicans maintained effective control of the Senate with 27 members, while Democrats hold eight seats.

Fifth term Republican senator Del Marsh had represented the 12th District since November 1998. He announced his retirement following the 2022 elections. [6] Lawyer Wendy Ghee Draper, [49] real estate firm owner Keith Kelley [50] and Weaver mayor Wayne Willis [51] all ran in the primary to replace Marsh. During the campaign, a ballot challenge was filed against Draper due to her past donations to prominent Democrats. [52] However, the Alabama Republican Party allowed her to remain on the ballot. [53] In the primary, no candidate more than half of the total vote, so Draper and Kelley advanced to a runoff. [11] In the runoff, Kelley defeated Draper by a ten-point margin. [54] Certified public accountant Danny McCullars [55] was nominated by the Democratic Party and contested the district in the general election.

Three term incumbent Republican senator Tom Whatley was controversially defeated in the primary by Auburn city councilman Jay Hovey by a single vote. [11] Shortly after, a New York Times editorial emerged telling a story of how a creative writing professor at Auburn University had convinced a substantial amount of avowed Democrats to vote in the Republican primary for Hovey due to Whatley's "abhorrent" record on legislation regarding abortion. [78] After this article emerged, Whatley declared himself "the rightful winner" of the election and produced a testimony from a single voter still registered in Georgia who stated they would have voted for Whatley if they were able. [79] However, Whatley soon conceded the election to Hovey before an official recount could be conducted at the Alabama Republican Party headquarters. [80] This election will likely lead to the Alabama Legislature passing laws requiring closed primary elections in last legislative session of the 2022 calendar year.[ needs update ] United States Army Human Resources Officer Sherri Reese [81] was nominated by the Democratic Party and challenged Hovey in the general election.
