Robertson Gains Support of Bibb County Sheriff in Alabama AG Race
“She is the law enforcement candidate in this race and has my full support”—Sheriff Jody Wade
Katherine Robertson’s bid for Alabama Attorney General picked up another endorsement Thursday, as Bibb County Sheriff Jody Wade threw his support behind her.
Wade cited Robertson’s long-standing friendship and her record of backing law enforcement when announcing his endorsement. “Katherine has been a good friend to this office and played an instrumental role in the passage of the Deputy Brad Johnson Act,” he said, calling her “the law enforcement candidate in this race.”
“She is the law enforcement candidate in this race and has my full support to be our next Attorney General,” Wade added.
In response, Robertson said she was honored to receive Wade’s backing. “It is a true honor to have the support of Sheriff Wade in this race,” she said. “I can’t thank him and the members of the Bibb County law enforcement community enough for their dedication, selfless service and sacrifice in keeping the people of Bibb County safe. I’m thankful for his support and look forward to continuing our work together.”
Robertson already holds endorsements from the Republican Attorneys General Association, as well as multiple law enforcement officials across Alabama.
Robertson will face former Alabama Supreme Court Justice Jay Mitchell and Blount County District Attorney Pamela Casey in the Republican primary on May 19, 2026.
