The Alabama Farmers Federation has endorsed Alabama House of Representatives candidate Cindy Myrex in her run to fill the District 12 seat.

Myrex, a lifelong resident of Cullman County, is a Smith Lake realtor and was recently elected to the Alabama Republican State Executive Committee for Cullman County.

Cullman County Farmers Federation president Lee Haynes said, “Cindy Myrex is a hard worker who not only shares our work ethic but also our conservative values. She’ll represent us well in the Legislature.”

Myrex served as a Trump alternate delegate to the 2024 National Republican Convention.

“It is an honor to have the endorsement of the farmers of this county,” said Myrex. “They share my campaign focus of faith, family and freedom. We will work well together to ensure the best interests of all the people of HD 12 are met.”

The seat was left vacant following the resignation of State Rep. Corey Harbison (R-Good Hope). 

The special primary election will be on July 15, and the special general election will be on October 28.

“This special election is an important opportunity to help shape the future of your community – so, if you are in House District 12, make sure to get out and vote," said Gov. Kay Ivey.

District 12 covers the southern and western portions of Cullman County.

Myrex and her husband, Ricky, are active members of Temple Baptist Church. They have two adult children, four grandchildren and two step-grandchildren.
