After the closest race in Tuesday's Alabama Republican Primary, Attorney General Steve Marshall and former Attorney General Troy King were heading toward toward a July 17 runoff.

The winner of that runoff will face Democrat Joseph Siegelman, son of former Gov. Don Siegelman, in November's general election. Siegelman defeated attorney Chris Christie in the Democratic primary Tuesday.

King and Marshall were swapping the lead late into Tuesday night as votes came in from around the state. With 90 percent of the vote in, Marshall had 29 percent and King 28 percent.

In third place in the four-person field was former U.S. Attorney Alice Martin with 24 percent of the vote and Birmingham attorney Chess Bedsole had 20 percent.
