The 6th District had been based in Birmingham for over a century, but after the 1990 census the state legislature redrew the state's congressional districts. They did so by redrawing the Tuscaloosa-based 7th District, adding predominantly black portions of Birmingham and Montgomery. In the process, however, they made the 6th District a heavily Republican district with a population that was almost 97% white. Bachus won the Republican nomination for the seat and faced five-term Democratic incumbent Ben Erdreich. Erdreich outspent Bachus by almost 2 to 1, but could not overcome the heavy Republican tilt of the new district and lost by seven percent of the vote.
