Get Ready to Vote in Alabama

Your voice matters. Your vote shapes Alabama’s future.

Voting is one of the most fundamental rights in our democracy, yet many eligible Alabamians do not exercise it. Every election is important, but the 2026 election cycle will be especially significant for our state.

Across Alabama, voters will help decide every seat in the Alabama Legislature, all seven members of the U.S. House delegation, one U.S. Senate seat, and all statewide constitutional offices, including the Governor. The decisions made in these elections will shape healthcare, education, workforce development, and the economy for years to come.

When more people vote, communities are better represented, and their needs are more clearly heard.

Why Your Vote Matters

Hospitals and healthcare organizations are among Alabama’s largest employers and strongest economic drivers.

• More than 81,000 people are directly employed by Alabama hospitals
• Tens of thousands of additional jobs are supported statewide
• $30 billion total economic impact across Alabama communities

The healthcare workforce is part of every community in the state. Participating in elections ensures that the voices of patients, families, caregivers, and healthcare professionals are reflected in public decision-making.
