Katherine Robertson Launches Campaign for Alabama Attorney General in 2026
Katherine Robertson, currently serving as Chief Counsel to Attorney General Steve Marshall, is officially launching her campaign for Alabama Attorney General on June 10. The announcement comes via a promotional reception invitation featuring Marshall, underscoring her strong support within law enforcement and political circles.
Robertson boasts an impressive background, having held senior roles in the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee under former Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Her extensive experience positions her as a formidable candidate in the upcoming race.
Endorsing her candidacy is Chris Carden, former Sylacauga Chief of Police, who praised her qualifications in a recent email to supporters. Carden highlighted the transformative impact Marshall has had on law enforcement in Alabama and expressed unwavering confidence in Robertson’s ability to continue that legacy. He stated, "Katherine is not just a lawyer; she truly understands the demands of our profession," emphasizing her combativeness and dedication to supporting Alabama’s law enforcement community.
With deep roots in Alabama—growing up in Selma and graduating from Auburn University and the University of Alabama School of Law—Robertson is committed to public service, having dedicated two decades to the field. In recent months, she has increased her visibility through legislative addresses and media engagements, along with the launch of her social media presence.
As the campaign season heats up, Robertson will face competition from other notable contenders, including Blount County District Attorney Pamela Casey and former Alabama Supreme Court Justice Jay Mitchell. The official fundraising season for the 2026 Alabama primary elections began last week, gearing up for a crucial year ahead.
