9th Congressional District of Alabama
From Bhamwiki
The 9th Congressional District of Alabama was a U.S. congressional district in central and western Alabama, which elected a representative to the United States House of Representatives. The 9th District was allocated in 1893 and was represented continuously by Democrats except for a brief challenge to Oscar Underwood's election by Republican Truman Aldrich in 1896-1897.
Following the 1960 census, Alabama's congressional representation was reduced and the 9th Distric was reapportioned to other districts.
