Greg MR JR Howard’s candidate record

Greg MR JR Howard is running as a Democrat for the U.S. House in Alabama’s 5th Congressional District. The contested general election is scheduled for Nov. 3, 2026.

Howard’s candidate record lists $2,776.23 in funds raised and $2,189.95 in funds spent. It lists no cash-on-hand figure. No biography is on file, so the record does not establish details about his education, work history, public service or other personal background.

Howard is one of four Democrats listed in the seven-candidate field. The other Democratic candidates are Jeremy Devito, Andrew Rankin Guyton Sneed and Candice Duvieilh.

The full AL-5 candidate field

The general-election field also includes two Republicans and one candidate identified with the affiliation label NNE. Dale Whitney Strong is the incumbent. Each candidate’s listed fundraising and spending totals are:

  • Joseph Terry — Republican: $0 raised and $0 spent. No biography or cash-on-hand figure is on file.
  • Crystal I Mrs Ball — NNE: $0 raised and $0 spent. No biography or cash-on-hand figure is on file.
  • Jeremy Devito — Democrat: $32,285.50 raised and $22,415.30 spent. No biography or cash-on-hand figure is on file.
  • Dale Whitney Strong — Republican, incumbent: $1,477,819.41 raised and $682,462.45 spent. No biography or cash-on-hand figure is on file.

  • Candice Duvieilh — Democrat: $38,333.16 raised and $35,668.19 spent. No biography or cash-on-hand figure is on file.

The fundraising and spending amounts are distinct from cash on hand. No cash-on-hand total is listed for any of the seven candidates, so subtracting spending from fundraising should not be presented as a candidate’s current campaign balance.

Where the candidates stand

Howard has no documented policy positions on file. The same is true for Terry, Ball, Devito, Strong, Sneed and Duvieilh.

That means no official position can be attributed to any candidate in this race on issues such as the federal budget, taxes, health care, immigration, defense or other matters that may come before the U.S. House. It also means the candidates cannot yet be compared through documented positions in their candidate records.

The election ahead

Voters in Alabama’s 5th Congressional District will choose among the listed candidates in the Nov. 3, 2026, general election. The field currently spans the Democratic, Republican and NNE labels, with an incumbent among the seven candidates.

The main record changes to watch are updated fundraising and spending totals, the filing of cash-on-hand figures, and the addition of documented policy positions or candidate biographies. Those updates would give voters more information for comparing Howard with the other six candidates without relying on assumptions about a candidate’s views or background.

What to watch

  • Updates to fundraising and spending totals
  • Whether cash-on-hand figures are filed
  • Whether candidates add documented policy positions
  • The Nov. 3, 2026, general election
