In the runoff for Hoover's City Council, Ashley Lovell defeated Liz Lane for Place 3 handily, while Gene Smith is the winner of Place 2.

The Alabama Republican Party (ALGOP) is taking an unusual step in at least two of the upcoming municipal election runoffs on Tuesday.

Liz Lane, a candidate for Hoover City Council Place 3, has tried appealing to residents as someone who shares their values and wants to represent everyone. However, in two recent podcast appearances, she dropped that facade, emphasizing her partisan beliefs, her view of a conservative voter and using profanity to attack the woman bringing the case against gay marriage.

Of the seven city council seats, five have been set, while two races are going to a runoff. Four incumbents will return. Two incumbents, Steve McClinton and Casey Middlebrooks did not have opposition, while Khristi Driver and Derrick Murphy easily fended off their opposition.

Hoover residents and candidates for Place 3 are awaiting the results of Tuesday’s election that will determine if Ashley Lovell and Liz Lane will have a runoff.

From repeating the falsehoods of terrorist organizations, accusing Israel’s prime minister of genocide, to suggesting that conservatives are trying to rebrand the KKK as patriotism and opposing capitalism, she's been outspoken with her progressive views.
