WASHINGTON _ Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley is using an online survey to help find a replacement for Sen. Jeff Sessions, who has been picked for President-elect Donald Trump's attorney general.
Bentley sent an online survey to the Alabama Republican Party's executive committee asking who they preferred to replace Sessions, the Montgomery Advertiser reported.
"The person who replaces Senator Sessions must uphold the Constitution, value the rights of the Second Amendment, the rights of the states, support pro-life issues, implement a strong national security policy, support domestic job creation and, most importantly, always put Alabama first," a message signed by appointments director Will Edwards read.
The questionnaire, hosted by SurveyMonkey, asks the members of the committee to nominate a candidate as well as a question to ask candidates
According to state party chairwoman Terry Lathan, there are more than 400 members on the executive committee.
