HOLLY POND — Cullman County business owner Heath Allbright has announced his candidacy for Alabama House District 11 in the Republican primary special election.
The special election is to fill the seat of Randall Shedd, who resigned last week to join the office of Senate President Pro Tem Garlan Gudger.
The special primary election is May 13; the special primary runoff, if necessary, is June 10; and the special general election is, Aug. 26. District 11 includes portions of Cullman and Blount County.
“I am running for Alabama House District 11 because I believe in the strength and potential of our community,” Allbright said. “As a lifelong resident of Cullman County, I have seen firsthand the challenges we face and the opportunities we can seize.
“I am ready to work with the people to ensure our district thrives – supporting families, schools and businesses while preserving the values that make District 11 home.”
An advocate for rural Alabama, Allbright’s key priorities include bolstering education funding, protecting constitutional rights, and promoting job creation through support for small businesses and infrastructure development.
“I want to be a representative who is approachable and accountable,” Allbright said. “Whether it’s fighting for our fair share of state resources or cutting through red tape to get things done, I will always put the people of District 11 first.”
Allbright is a lifelong resident of Holly Pond and has served two terms on the Cullman County Board of Education. He is the owner of Brighton Forestry Services, a timber harvesting and reforestation company based in Holly Pond.
Allbright and his wife, BreAnn, have been married for 18 years and have two children, Cade and Lily.
