What else is there to know about this senator?

A leading outside group that's dedicated to electing conservative women is endorsing the female Republican primary challenger to longtime GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska.
Maggie's List on Wednesday backed former Alaska commissioner of administration Kelly Tshibaka. The move was one of three endorsements made by the influential federal political action committee that was shared first with Fox News.
The endorsement of Tshibaka was the first time Maggie’s List since its founding in 2010 has backed a challenger to a female Republican member of the Senate or House of Representatives.

Okay, time to be ALASKA not asslaska. Dump murky-cow-ski.
Dude, study local politics in AK - it ain’t like where you live.
Murkowski got primaried out all legit, but AK does not have a sore loser law..Her friend$ in the Native corps opened their pocket books (plus a lot of sketchy shit in the bush votes)
and purchased her seat - straight up.
Alaska is far more blue that folks realize...

For anyone questioning former President Donald Trump’s lock on the Republican Party after his 2020 loss, look no further than the impact his endorsement packs.
In new polling of several House Republican primary races, a Trump endorsement pushes 2022 candidates past 50%, even against long-established incumbents such as Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney.
“The Trump endorsement is a true dagger,” said Zachary Moyle of SoCo Strategies. “Trump is the king of kingmakers.”
In last month’s elections, for example, Trump-endorsed candidates went four for four.
And according to Brian Jack, the former White House political director, Trump’s 2020 record was 120-2, and this year, it is 17-1.
“Results don’t lie,” he said. “The power of President Trump’s endorsement is undeniable.”

Jerk the Murk!!!!!!
If that corrupt old buzzard tried to back me into a corner like that I’d set her back on her granny panties fast.
Sadly the outposts probably aren’t represented as they should be. Sort of like our issue in Nevada. 78% or so of the state population is in Vegas so the other counties, less washoe county/Reno, are pretty well left hanging. Hairy screed has his two chosen ones in the senate currently but we’re gonna try to unseat the one that’s up in Nov.
If AK is so blue, then why dues Murkowski need to pretend she’s Republican?
It looks to me like Alaska is full of low-information Republicans. They want a Republican but can’t tell the difference - so all Murkowski has to do is say she’s Republican and they will vote for her.
We have the same thing here in PA which is why we have Pat Toomy. Not as bad as Murkowski, but close.
The Republicans here are stupid - they will vote for any Republican they think can win.
Republicans need to stop worrying about majority control in the House and Senate and vote for MAGA people even if they seem like a long shot.
I’d rather lose a race than “win” a race and find out I just elected another RINO.
From her looks, I can tell Tshibaka is not related to Chewbaka at all.

She’s gonna purchase it again this time too. Money doesn’t ALWAYS determine the outcome of an election, but when there’s this large of a disparity it pretty much does. Cash on hand as of the latest FEC filings:
Murkowski: $3,243,520
Tshibaka: $294,345
Liz Chaney has a monstrous financial advantage in her upcoming House race and that’s (probably) not going to save her, but Wyoming isn’t Alaska; Alaska Democrats are dirty as hell and the liberal Republicans are even dirtier. Also with Alaska’s new “Rigged Choice Voting” system any conservative really has their work cut out for them. It will be a major upset if Mookowski isn’t back in the Senate in 2023.
Alaska is so skewed, with the ranked voting Murkowski need to be crushed.. need to make sure this other person gets 50%+ out of the primary..
My guess is the Uniparty will back a few more folks and try their best to split to anti Murkowski vote to help her survive to the general
“need to make sure this other person gets 50%+ out of the primary..”
This isn’t Louisiana, where a candidate getting a majority in the primary is elected, so that doesn’t matter here. The top 4 vote-getters in the primary automatically advance to the general election regardless. That will be the Cow, Kelly, and 2 others. We can only hope that voters for the 2 minor-party candidates favor Tsibusha over Murkowski as their #2 choice, because that’s exactly where this election is going to be decided.
Without “Rigged Choice Voting”, the general election would basically be a 1-on-1 matchup. That wouldn’t guarantee a good outcome, but there’d be a better chance of one. Which is why liberal groups spent a ton of money last time around successfully getting RCV to be voted in by a largely clueless electorate.
Last time I saw a mouth like that it had a hook in it!
Last time she was primaried but then won via a write-in campaign in the general. Hopefully she can be ousted this time 'round. She needs to go.
(plus a lot of sketchy shit in the bush votes)

Exactly. I spend a lot of time on the Yukon River and have been in many of these native villages. They are VERY poor and many of the communities have less than 100 people in them. Circle, Alaska for example has a population of 64 and it’s population has declined since the last census by 38.4%.
Many villages have no law enforcement. So, it’s hard for me to imagine that there is any REAL SECURITY relative to voting box’s in these villages on election day.
Is it me, or has Feinstein been rather quiet since it came out she had a Chicom Spy driving her around for 20 years?
That’s how I feel too. The Republican party will never become more conservative if its voters keep reelecting RINOs. The party is only as strong as its weakest link, and right now, its weakest link is Murkowski.
It could be that, or it could be that at 88 she’s lucky if she wakes up each morning.
