美联社预测，获得特朗普支持的雷特·马克斯在周二阿拉巴马州新划分的第二国会选区共和党激烈初选中获胜。
共和党人正寻求击败民主党众议员绍马里·菲格尔斯，后者在2024年最高法院裁定阿拉巴马州共和党主导绘制的国会选区地图歧视黑人选民后，拿下了该席位。
但今年，最高法院为阿拉巴马州启用更有利于共和党的地图扫清了障碍，该地图取消了阿拉巴马州两个多数黑人选区之一。根据新的选区划分，第二国会选区不再包含莫比尔，这让菲格尔斯的连任之路变得更加艰难。
弗吉尼亚大学政治中心将这场竞选评级为“共和党大概率获胜”。
马克斯获得了特朗普总统、众议院共和党领导层以及阿拉巴马州共和党参议员凯蒂·布里特的背书。

Trump-backed Rhett Marques won a crowded Republican primary in Alabama’s newly drawn 2nd Congressional District on Tuesday, the Associated Press projects.
Republicans are seeking to defeat Democratic Rep. Shomari Figures, who won the seat in 2024 after the Supreme Court affirmed that the state’s GOP-drawn congressional map discriminated against Black voters.
This year, however, the Supreme Court cleared the way for Alabama to use a map more favorable to Republicans, which eliminates one of Alabama’s two majority-Black seats. Under the new boundaries, the 2nd District no longer includes Mobile, making it more difficult for Figures to win reelection.
The University of Virginia’s Center for Politics rates the race as likely Republican.
Marques has the endorsements of President Trump, House GOP leaders and Republican Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama.
