Why would he debate her, he already beat her.

OK, I'm not from Alaska, so maybe I'm not familiar with how things are done up there, but why-oh-why is a politician defeated in the primary allowed to debate in the general election? And why did Miller agree to this?

Makes no sense at all, she’s not even on the ballot.

She's staging a write-in campaign and the state election rules allow her wide latitude in how voters spell her name (e.g. Lisa Murcowski, Lisa M, etc.). Of course she wrangled her way to participate in a debate between the two primary winners and showed she was really the skunk in the barnyard.
