Election Day is here in Alabama, and the state's voters will help decide the next president and the balance of power in Congress. Items on the ballot range from a state amendment, to a race for chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court, to a showdown for control of a newly redrawn congressional district.

Voting rights advocates want Alabamians to be prepared for Election Day, but they said not everyone may understand what to expect at the polls or even if they have the right to vote. Advocacy groups and election officials have been working to get that information to the public.
