Heflin expelled from Alabama Democratic Party
In Montgomery on December 17 Senator J Thomas Heflin of Alabama was removed from the Democratic Party for backing Herbert Hoover and opposing Gov Alfred I Smith. The state Democratic executive committee barred Heflin and Hoovercrats from running on the Democratic ticket in the August 12 primary due to failures to support party nominees. Heflin and Hugh Locke, a Brimmingham attorney and gubernatorial hopeful, may run as independents in November.
