Poll Shows Senator Lisa Murkowski Losing To GOP Primary Challenger By Double Digits

A Cyngal poll published on Monday found that anti-Trump Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, is not faring well on favorability in her home state.

Kelly Tshibaka, the Alaska Republican Commissioner of Administration and Murkowski’s primary challenger, scored highest in a ballot test with 33.6 percent. Murkowski came in third with almost 19 percent, losing second place to the 21 percent of respondents who are “undecided.” Almost 18 percent backed the Democratic challenger Al Gross.

Murkowski’s favorability rate, according to the poll, is 33 percent. Among Republicans alone, that rate sinks to 10 percent. Tshibaka scored a 61 percent approval rating among both Trump supporters and Republicans as a whole.

Murkowski’s decision to convict then-President Donald Trump at the second impeachment trial has not helped her re-election chances. Accordingly, 78 percent of respondents said her decision made them less likely to vote for her.

Although Alaska now has ranked choice voting, Murkowski could fail to make it to the final four, or come in fourth.

Doesn’t matter. Remember the 2010 election when she lost the primary and the deep state had to intervene.

She’ll just run an Independent write-in campaign again and the Democrats will reelect her again.

We are light years away from 2010

The democrats will only vote for a mass murder supporting, genuine monster. More likely they’ll throw up an AOC clone.

Alaska could use a fierce Wookie!

It’s amazing that this woman has lasted this long.

She’s a pitiful excuse, for a representative of conservative Alaska.

Yeah, so if she ran against Michelle Obama it would be Tshibaka versus Chewbacca.

Yes I remember 2010. But 2022 is a long way off. And a poll like this will send chills through Washington.

The power brokers ain’t what they used to be.

Let’s just hope that she doesn’t go Independent like she did last time and get in despite losing the GOP nomination.

Remember Murky got back in the race via write-in last time. Slimier than an eel in silty mud.
