Democrat Mary Peltola defeats Sarah Palin in race for Alaska's at-large House seat
NBC News ^ | November 23, 2022 | Scott Wong

Democrat Mary Peltola has won the race for Alaska’s at-large congressional seat, NBC News projected Wednesday, defeating former governor and GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin.

While the election was held earlier this month, the race was not called for weeks because of Alaska’s new ranked-choice voting system where voters rank the candidates in order of preference.

After the first round of voting, Peltola led Palin by more than 20 percentage points, with Republican Nick Begich, a scion of one of Alaska’s most well-known political families, in third. But because Peltola failed to win more than 50 percent, the voting went to a second round with Begich eliminated and his votes redistributed to those voters’ second choice.

The three-way race was a rematch of a special election held earlier this year. Peltola made history in August, becoming the first Native Alaskan seated in Congress after she won the special election to replace longtime GOP Rep. Don Young, who died in March at the age of 88.

CHUCK ANOTHER STATE FOR THE RATS! AZ HAS TURNED BLUE!! Stupid FREAKING PEOPLE YOU WILL SUFFER THE SAME EFFIN FATE AS CALIFORNIA, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Georgia, once they get their tentacles around the neck of the state they will never let go. You will never ever again see a Republican president. This nation is lost let us just understand that fact. The cheating is over the top and there is no one to help us stop it. When you have a republican governor congratulating the theft that took place on election night and congratulate the thieves who stole it you know damn well this nation so screwed! Sooner or later the people in Arizona are gonna suffer so bad deservedly they’re going to be crying uncle! But there will be nothing they can do because the theft will go on over and over and over again. Let’s face it the only way will get back to honest integrity elections is if we do exactly thing Brazil is doing right now! Other than that we’re just gonna have to bend over all the time and let the rats WIN by cheating and fraud!

Yes he is! That’s why all the prayer that has been lifted up for this nation is hitting a brick wall! Satan has to have his way for now because we are in the latter days! But good God it be nice to see at least one successful win!

When Alaskans are cut off from their own oil supply because Murkowski voted for a nominee who is doing just that and a congress critter who will do the exact same thing, if they freeze to death, it is on them no support.

They voted for this mess and now they experience the consequences.

Hey Arizonans Enjoy the massive invasion invasion that it’s about to take place when that bitch opens up the border wider to accommodate the hordes of illegals that are going to be pouring in your state! Enjoy and make sure you pay all your taxes because they’ll be going directly to housing feeding schooling medical etc. all the thousands upon thousands that are going to land on your streets! Remember Hobbs is a democrat who believes in open borders she is a mirror image of Newsom she will welcome them with open arms! Make sure you get an second job because the burden will be on your backs to pay more taxes to support your illegal Neighbors!

The Uniparty engineered the 2022 "election" to inflict maximum damage on Trump and MAGA.

The dice are turning up "winners" for the Swamp at every turn.

The Narrative requires Walker to go down in defeat. Mitch McNoballs could care less if he gets another Republican senator - as long as Trump is gone.

The miscalculation that the RepukeLickings are making is that conservatives are seeing their puppet strings clearly.

And the RePukes can't beat the Democrats without the conservatives.

If they give Trump the bum's rush, it will be a cold day in h377 before I turn out to vote for a Republican.

Hobbs is pretty much “neutered” by the AZ legislature, which increased the number of Conservative seats in this election. It has power over spending and the ability to impeach.

The NeverSarah’s make up most of the FR NeverTrumpers.

Sarah and Lauren are both strong minded women.

President Trump supports them, both.

(Maybe it has mommy issues. 🤷‍♀️)

I just checked, and littleRINO45 hates Marjorie Taylor Greene, too.

Can you imagine running into this knuckle-dragging mouthbreather in a social situation?

A black hole of IQ points.

Sarah had the fallout of a Republican competing with her, whom she edged out.

Murcowski won only because Mitch the Bitch gave her $7 million dollars, and she still only won by a handful of points.

So Mr. Tokyo, you really have no clue about what you are saying.

Alaska is becoming yet another state where the Republican Party no longer exists -— and please don’t tell me that Murkowski is a Republican. :) The only reason she can’t be a ‘Rat is that she doesn’t vote with them 101% of the time.

I predicted that the Begich voters will put the Democrat as their second choice.

Ranked choice voting is unconstitutional.
