It’s a bit hard to tell from this article.
Alabama Democratic officials today said they expected Gaynell Hendricks’ challenge to the House District 54 election result eventually to be brought before the party’s executive committee.
A hearing to decide the contested election between Hendricks and her opponent, Patricia Todd, was postponed Tuesday after members of the presiding committee decided not to attend. The party is hoping to hold a new hearing Thursday.
There’s no mention of Patricia’s call to dismiss the contest. There’s also no mention of a time or location for the hearing. I’m told that Jefferson County party leaders are pushing to hold it in Birmingham, which makes a lot more sense than having everyone involved drive to Montgomery again.
Whatever the committee’s decision, the result probably will be appealed to the executive committee during its Aug. 26 meeting, said Jim Spearman, the party’s executive director.
Is there any chance the party will get its act together and do the right thing?

Have the Democrats, especially in this state, ever pleased you, kathy?
