2008[edit]
Segall' was the Democratic nominee for the 2008 election for the United States House of Representatives from Alabama's 3rd congressional district. The incumbent was Republican Mike D. Rogers.
After Segall reported a strong second quarter of fundraising in July 2008, in which he actually outraised Rogers,[3] the Cook Political Report moved the seat from "Solid Republican" to "Likely Republican", then later moved it back to "Solid Republican".[4] CQ Politics forecasts it as 'Republican Favored'.[5] He lost the election by a margin of 53% for Rogers and 47% for Segall.
2010[edit]
In April 2009, Segall announced he would again challenge Rogers in the 2010 election cycle.[6] Getting an earlier start than in the 2008 cycle, by December 31, 2009, Segall had $311,000 in total receipts however incumbent Rogers had $641,000 in receipts.[7] At that time no major primary competition was facing Segall.
However, on April 2, 2010 Segall dropped out of the campaign before the June 1 primary,[8] which allowed Steve Segrest to run uncontested against Rogers in the general election.[9] Rogers defeated Democratic nominee Steve Segrest.
