In 2010,Whatley defeated Democratic incumbent T. D. Little to win the 27th district's seat in the Alabama State Senate. He was re-elected in 2014 and 2018.
In 2022,Whatley faced Auburn City Councilman,Jay Hovey,in the Primary Election,in May,on the Republican Ballot. On election night,Whatley trailed Hovey by four votes. After the provisional votes were counted,Hovey had won the election by one vote,making him the Republican nominee for Alabama Senate District 27. The results of this election would be questioned by Whatley,who decided to take it to the ALGOP for further examination. This ALGOP intervention would result in weeks of deliberation and a change in the Primary Election result;however,as of July 1,2022,the ALGOP vacated its earlier decision of counting an illegal vote from,Mrs. Kenney as a tie,resulting in Councilman Hovey as the official Republican nominee for Alabama Senate District 27.
