Republican business owner enters US Senate race in Alabama

Another Republican has entered her name into the Senate race to replace Richard Shelby.

Business owner Jessica Taylor announced her campaign on Thursday and joined three others after the seat. Taylor finished third in the 2020 GOP primary for the 2nd Congressional District and owns a grant writing business.

So far, the race is also made up of Katie Britt, former leader of the Business Council of Alabama and Shelby's former chief of staff; Congressman Mo Brooks, who has an endorsement from former President Donald Trump; and Lynda Blanchard, who served as Trump's ambassador to Slovenia.
