Mo Brooks on Allen-Wahl Lieutenant Governor Race

About this episode

Former Congressman Mo Brooks analyzes the political maneuvering in Alabamas lieutenant governor race, where Secretary of State Wes Allen and ex-GOP chair John Wahl are vying for votes. Brooks discusses Allens attendance at a Ramadan dinner, linking it to election strategy and targeting Alabamas fundamentalist Christian voters. He suggests that Allens move is a calculated risk, aiming to gain more support than it loses, as polls may indicate that standing against Islam resonates with more voters than it alienates.

On a recent episode of The Dale Jackson Show, former Congressman Mo Brooks dissected the clash between Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen and ex-GOP, Chair John Wall. Both are battling it out for Lieutenant Governor. Allen ripped Wall for showing up at a Ramadan dinner hosted by the Aniston Islamic Center. Brooks called it pure election math, driven by poles and the hunger to win. He linked Allen's move to similar warnings from Senator Tommy Tuberville about threats tied to Islam. Voters in Alabama's fundamentalist Christian crowd seemed to be the target here. Brooks figures politicians hit events that boost their numbers, and Allen's betting this play grabs more support than it loses. No surprise from Brooks Allen's sharp and checks the data. The polls likely show that taking a stand against Islam fires up enough folks to outweigh any backlash from Muslim voters. This back and forth highlights how tight race is forced candidates to pick sides, all chasing that edge, come election day.
