The race
Alabama House District 77 elects one representative on November 3, 2026, for a four-year term. The seat is held by incumbent TaShina Morris (Democratic). The confirmed general-election roster is: TaShina Morris (Democratic). The district's 2024 presidential baseline was D+46.26 (Wikipedia summary table) — a baseline, not a rating. Both Alabama legislative chambers are rated Safe Republican by Sabato's Crystal Ball (January 22, 2026), per the chamber election pages on Wikipedia. Only one candidate is on the general-election ballot, so this article is in short form: roster, what is sourced, and the call.
The candidates, claim by claim
TaShina Morris (D), incumbent. TaShina Morris appears on the confirmed general-election roster for this district at the sources cited below. No detailed voting-record, biography, or signature-claim file beyond the facts printed in this article was verified at this sourcing depth, and none is invented here.
Pros: A willing nominee giving the district's Democratic voters a choice on the ballot. A sitting incumbent whose constituents know the record. Cons: No documented break with the Democratic Party toward this publication's values was located in the compiled record — no Manchin-test break. The organizing vote adds to a Democratic caucus whose program this publication opposes; that caucus weight is lighter in the House than in the Senate, but it does not create an exception where no break exists. The flaw, plainly: Enabler class, not extremist — a reliable party-line vote, which is the standing reason the exception for a Democrat is not earned here.
OUR CALL
No endorsement. No Republican is on the general-election ballot in this district, and the Democratic incumbent does not pass the Manchin test on any record located — no documented in-service break with the Democratic Party toward this publication's values was found at this sourcing depth. Under this publication's doctrine, Black Belt and other Democratic seats default to no endorsement absent a documented Manchin file, and none is printed here because none was verified. No extremist classification is made for any candidate here: no documented DSA membership, self-described democratic-socialist identification, or authored socialist program was located for any candidate on this ballot, and enabler is not extremist.
