Santa Claus has quite a few votes.

I read their Election Day lasts until June 21st.
I guess it’s a matter of widespread areas of land, sparsely populated. i.e. The Dakotas.
I read as many as 48 people are running in that primary!

[campaignPete R-CT]

That’s now 45% of the vote reporting

Hopefully Alaska will get out today and VOTE for Sarah Palin in the Special Primary. She is a GREAT person who will NEVER LET YOU DOWN!

Palin first place

Santa Claus has quite a few votes.

Yes, but at this point it doesn’t look like he’s going to be one of the top four finalists.

[BigEdLB]

She has to beat Santa Claus, ho embarrassing if she doesnt

[Lazamataz]

If Santa Claus wins, I demand he take the position.

[toddausauras]

Grizzly Rising.

[robowombat]

She does seem to be that. Why has her family been such a train wreck?

[heshtesh]

I still think she lit the fire under Trump for 2016..........

[McGruff]

I remember watching to one of Donald Trump’s very first campaign events and saying to myself, this guy sounds like Sarah Palin. Been a Trump fan ever since.

[Sacajaweau]

Trump thought of the possibility of the Presidency waaaaay back in 1988 and spoke of it in an interview with Oprah. He had his own match....and the MAGA theme said it all.

Posting the 1988 interview. The man was always passionate in his love of country.

This would be great to see Palin speaking for us. Though I hope she learned her lesson with the media. She can't care what they think.

I think that would be to Palin's advantage if the DEM managed to enter the final race. Otherwise all the DIM voters will put their votes for the best placed RINO.

[Political Junkie Too]

If this result holds, then Begich would have no choice but to do the honorable thing and withdraw and endorse Palin. There is no need to split the ticket to give the Democrat a chance, however slim it might be. By staying in, Begich would just be fodder for the LAAP-dog media to create a narrative to drive a wedge between Alaskan Republican voters.

By dropping out, that would give Palin a unified 50% result coming out of the primary.
