Crypto PAC-backed Barry Moore wins Alabama GOP Senate runoff
Barry Moore won Alabama’s Republican Senate runoff after more than $12 million in pro-crypto PAC support helped carry his campaign into the November general election.
The race now becomes one of its clearest Senate bets this year.
The result gives Fairshake-linked groups another win in the 2026 primary season. Moore defeated former Navy SEAL Jared Hudson in the race to replace Senator Tommy Tuberville, who is running for Alabama governor.
Crypto PAC spending pays off in Alabama
Unofficial results from the Alabama Secretary of State showed Moore with 55.80% of the vote, compared with 44.20% for Hudson. All 67 counties had reported results as of late Tuesday.
Moore will face Democrat Everett Wess in November. Alabama remains a strongly Republican state, which gives Moore a favorable path after winning the GOP nomination.
Defend American Jobs, a Republican super PAC tied to Fairshake, spent heavily to support Moore. The group reported $7.4 million in media spending before the May 20 primary and another $4.7 million before the runoff.
Federal Election Commission records list Defend American Jobs as an active independent expenditure-only super PAC. The committee cannot coordinate directly with campaigns, but it can spend on media and ads.
Fairshake spokesman Geoff Vetter said “our biggest spend of the cycle” produced another pro-innovation Senate candidate. He also said the network still has nearly $150 million in cash as it keeps building a larger pro-crypto caucus.
