After serving three terms in Montgomery, democratic State Senator Vivian Davis-Figures is ready for a new challenge. On Saturday, Senator Figures will announce her candidacy for the U.S. Senate. That would make her the only challenger to republican Senator Jeff Sessions, who has been on Capitol Hill since 1997.

Senator Figures was elected in 1997, to serve the remaining term of her late husband, Senator Michael A. Figures. She was re-elected without opposition in 1998 and 2002. A Mobile native, Senator Figures earned a bachelor degree from the University of New Haven in Connecticut and attended Jones School of Law in Montgomery. She is also a former Mobile City Councilwoman.

The election is next November. Alabama's primary is scheduled for February 5th, which is Fat Tuesday.
