2014
Elections for the Alabama House of Representatives took place in 2014. A primary election took place on June 3, 2014; a runoff election took place where necessary on July 15, 2014. The general election was held on November 4, 2014. The signature filing deadline for candidates wishing to run in this election was February 7, 2014. Incumbent Randall Shedd was unopposed in the Republican primary and was unchallenged in the general election.[3][4][5][6]
2013
Shedd ran for election in the special election for Alabama House of Representatives District 11. The seat was vacant following Jeremy Oden's (R) resignation to accept an appointment to the Alabama Public Service Commission on November 30, 2012. Shedd faced Lydia Haynes, Danny Alldredge and Mike Graves in the Republican primary on February 12, 2013. As no candidate received more than 50 percent of the vote, the top two vote-getters - Randall Shedd and Danny Alldredge - met in a primary runoff election on March 26, which Shedd won. Because the Democratic Party failed to certify a candidate by April 10, Shedd was declared the winner.[7][8]

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
