Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum is making a pair of stops in Alabama to support Republicans.
The one-time presidential candidate will be in Troy on Thursday morning for a rally with GOP Attorney General Luther Strange. Strange is being opposed by Democrat Joe Hubbard in November.
Santorum will be in Birmingham in the afternoon for an appearance with 6th District congressional candidate Gary Palmer before a fundraiser for the Jefferson County GOP. Palmer is opposed by Democrat Mark Lester in the general election.
Santorum won Alabama's Republican presidential primary in 2012. He now chairs Patriot Voices, which bills itself as a grassroots conservative organization.
