I am not surprised anymore. This is the same state that voted in Uber RINO Lisa Murkowski BY WRITE IN over Joe Miller.

A new Hays Research poll shows Barrack Obama would beat Sarah Palin among Alaskans if the presidential election was today.
The poll found 42 percent of Alaskan voters would pick or are learning toward Obama in a head to head race against Palin for the presidency, while 36 percent of the voters would choose or are leaning toward Palin over him.
Conservative Anchorage radio host Mike Porcaro paid for Hays Research to ask the question.
“Sarah Palin showcases her Alaska roots at every opportunity, but the surprising reality is she has become highly unpopular in her home state,” Porcaro said in an emailed statement.
“Whether it is the fact she left office after serving barely two years or that some Alaskans believe her tax policies have punished our vital oil and gas industry or the ‘rock star’ nature of her media coverage, these results show Sarah Palin would lose to Obama in Alaska, where voters overwhelmingly support conservative candidates,” Porcaro said.
Porcaro hosts an afternoon show on KENI AM and owns an Anchorage advertising agency.
Hays Research of Anchorage polled 500 Alaskans who voted in at least two of the four statewide elections. The poll was on June 21st and June 22nd.
It asked:
“Although it is some time from now, thinking about the election for President of the United States next year, if the election were held today and the candidates were Democrat Barack Obama or Republican Sarah Palin, for whom would you vote or are you undecided?”
Respondents who had “strong” views favored Obama 34 percent to Palin’s 25 percent.

Haven’t seen the internals, but if Alaska votes for Hussein, then kiss the Republic goodbye. We’re doomed.
Where did they poll? In the villages?
A lib polling firm. Only fools would peddle this idiotic trash.
Is it possible that (wrongly), the majority of Americans have bought into the lies about her and cannot be convinced otherwise?
White Guilt and The Jealousy of Success could easily explain this!
I am so tired of this Affirmative Action and White Guilt $#!T
Sure. Now if only we can nominate Mitt Romney, Alaska is saved. Hurrah.
I posted this before:
This poll was paid for by Pocaro Communications... disclosed on the pollsters website... and Mike Pocaro is one of the republican murkowski bunch... and one of the good old boys that had clients that felt the sting of Governor Palin. He has a local political radio show... was a past Director of Alaska’s PUBLIC BROADCASTING SYSTEM. Every officer on the board of this company is tied in with networks, Disney, BIG OIL, ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE, Marine Services companies, Shell, Phillips 66 and every other corporate parasite that Palin took on a Governor. Ask yourself why a company like this... why would they pay for this poll? Could it be that they needed to shape opinion to reinforce the lie that Palin is hated? Could this be lisa murkowski payback... it was after all... her daddy that Palin beat! Come on people... do a little research and THINK! Check it out for yourself and tell me what you think.

As Governor Palin had a 93% approval rating and an 89% approval rating, and had sustained approval numbers in the 80s, she was the most popular Governor in America, and even described as the most popular official in America.
I don’t have any doubts that Alaska would vote for Governor Palin over Obama.
It’s not about “White Guilt” or “The Jealousy of Success” or Affirmative Action.
It’s about Sarah Palin.
No the Repubic isn’t doomed, the Republic is simply trying to tell you that Palin is damaged goods and cannot win against anyone. Please find us a serious, quality candidate we can vote in to replace Obama.
Unless the Palin troops realize she can’t win and stop backing that dead horse, help find a serious candidate who can win were stuck with 4 more years of Obama, guaranteed!
Do you know or did you check to find out if this poll was done by registered or likely voters?
During my visit there to Alaska a few months ago I was quite surprised at the number of folks there who appeared like they had a liberal bent to them.
Barely, and only after Republican Senators telling Alaskan voters that they would keep Murkowski's power if they reelected her, instead of Miller.
The same pollster that Had McCain/Palin winning by only 3 points they won over 21 points. So we know Hays is Crap plus he is a Murkoski person
Alaska...3 electoral votes.
But 88% were for Sarah before the media decided who they prefer.

BS, Palin is the only one that can beat Mitt romney.
Here are some recent polls, and they reflect more or less what we have seen for almost three years running, Palin either first or second.
Three days ago the AP-Gfk poll showed Palin as first in favorability among all GOP candidates with republicans
Twelve days ago The Economist/YouGov poll had her at first on the 2012 list as nominee choice.
Eighteen days ago the Reuters/IPSOS poll had Palin at first of the 2012 list as nominee choice.
