Fake Jesse Battles
WRONG FOR ALABAMA
Jesse Battles is in politics for a CASH GRAB
Rewarded with cash after previous work on a campaign1
Jesse Battles worked as a consultant for a longtime liberal Democrat running as an “Independent” against a conservative Republican. Battles picked a paycheck over conservative principles. That betrayal is exactly why the Alabama Republican Party removed him from the Republican ballot. Now Battles is running as an “Independent”, using the same playbook as the liberal he worked for.
His wife was handed a taxpayer-funded job from that same campaign work2
When that same liberal politician won public office, he returned the favor. He hired Battles’ wife to a government job paid for by taxpayers. Battles and his wife have stayed in the inner circle ever since.
Failed to pay his own taxes on time3
Jesse Battles wants to help write Alabama’s budget, but he couldn’t pay his own property taxes on time. Records show that Battles and his wife were charged penalties and interest for paying their 2024 property taxes late. If he can’t keep up with his own bills, why should we trust him with ours?

Jesse Battles Is Trying to Fool You
Kicked off the Republican ballot,
Jesse Battles is now calling himself an “Independent” to hide his liberal ties.
Worked on a LIBERAL campaign that tried to undermine a Republican candidate1
In February 2026, the Alabama Republican Party removed Jesse Battles from its primary ballot because he had worked for liberal campaigns and campaigned alongside them. When Republicans wouldn’t let him run as one of them, he switched labels and hoped you wouldn’t notice.
Has been attending LIBERAL events since 2017 and posts about them on social media3
For years, Jesse Battles has shown up at events with liberal politicians and posted about them on social media. Battles calls himself a lifelong Republican, but his record says otherwise.
Was removed from the Republican 2026 ballot for his LIBERAL work2
When conservatives needed him, Jesse Battles worked to defeat a Conservative state senator. Now he wants those same Republican voters to trust him as their State Senator.
