I’m Walt Maddox, Mayor of the City of Tuscaloosa. Being Mayor of my hometown is one of the greatest honors of my life and has afforded me the privilege of serving a place I love and people I believe in.

Today, I am announcing the formation of a political committee to help me explore the possibility of running for Governor in 2018. The decision to form the committee was easy. By taking this step, I am complying with Alabama’s election and ethics laws and continuing our tradition of transparency.

The more difficult decision of running for Governor lies ahead, and I take seriously my responsibilities as a husband, father and mayor. For those that I love and serve, they deserve thoughtful answers.

Wherever this path may lead, it is undeniable, that as Alabamians, we all deserve better.

Good deal. I'd vote for him. He's done awesome things for the city of Tuscaloosa, and just released a 4-year plan to revitalize Tuscaloosa's most poverty stricken area.

Sadly, I fear people won't vote for him because he'll run as a Democrat. Just once, I would like for people to vote for someone who wishes to serve the people, and not the parties.
