Murkowski backs Haley in GOP primary
The Hill ^ | 3/1/24 | Caroline Vakil

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) announced Friday she is endorsing former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley in the GOP presidential primary against former President Trump.

“I’m proud to endorse Gov. Nikki Haley,” Murkowski said in a statement.

“America needs someone with the right values, vigor, and judgment to serve as our next President—and in this race, there is no one better than her,” she continued. “Nikki will be a strong leader and uphold the ideals of the Republican Party while serving as a President for all Americans.”

Murkowski, the first GOP senator to endorse Haley in the race, was among seven Republican senators to vote to convict Trump for his alleged role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. Trump, however, was not ultimately convicted in the Senate.

The former president has called Murkowski a “RINO,” referencing the acronym “Republican in name only,” and claimed “she’s worse than a Democrat,” in endorsing a primary challenger to her during the November 2022 midterms following her vote to convict him.

Blame the idiot Alaskan voters for passing Ranked Choice Voting in 2020.

We did not all vote for it. And I am certainly not an idiot.
Come and tell me that to my face a$$hole!

Blame Alaska Republicans

And a hefty measure of blame goes to Alaska’s RCV system.
