现任阿拉巴马州州长凯·艾维（Kay Ivey，共和党）已领导“黄雀州”近十年，她于2017年接替深陷丑闻的前任罗伯特·J·本特利（Robert J. Bentley），随后在2018年和2022年两度自行当选，但任期限制使她无法寻求第三个任期。

阿拉巴马州联邦参议员汤米·图伯维尔（Tommy Tuberville，共和党）正寻求从华盛顿特区转战蒙哥马利，竞选阿拉巴马州首席行政长官。这位前奥本大学橄榄球教练于2020年当选联邦参议员，击败了前参议员道格·琼斯（Doug Jones，民主党-阿拉巴马州），但在上议院仅任职一个任期后便寻求新职位。在总统特朗普的支持且几乎没有竞争对手的情况下，图伯维尔在初选中以85%的得票率大胜。
