Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) said Saturday that she “could not” vote for either former President Trump or President Biden in the 2024 election, opening the door to third-party support as the candidates likely face off in a general election rematch.
Murkowski told NBC News that she “could not” vote for Trump, but added that, “I can’t vote for Biden.”
The moderate Republican endorsed Nikki Haley against Trump for the GOP presidential nomination on Friday, calling her someone with the “right values, vigor, and judgment to serve as our next President.”
But Haley faces a tough battle to challenge Trump for the GOP nomination, with Super Tuesday contests likely to put the race out of reach for the former U.N. ambassador.
Murkowski has long been a critic of Trump, being one of the few Republicans to vote to convict Trump in his 2021 impeachment. In December, she said Trump’s inflammatory rhetoric is “poisoning our country.”

Not until we get rid of RCV.
IKR!
What a joke, she couldn’t vote for Biden.
She votes for him most of the time already, why not in the general?
She’s a CLOWN!
Murkowski has, from what I’ve seen, been nothing but a problem over the years. If she’s a registered Republican, why can’t she vote like one?
She’s a …
Duly noted, Lisa. As if we really care who you will vote for. Your vote counts the same as everybody else's - its just one vote. She needs to get off her high horse and her self-importance. Another piece of crap Rino.
Her rise and continued presence has always been quite mysterious. It certainly appears she has some powerful but well hidden supporters who got her in, and finagled the Ranked Choice scheme to keep her there. As always, follow the money.
The crooked woman who had to rig elections with “ranked elections” (or whatever they call it) in Alaska in order to win despite getting less votes than her opponent says that she can’t vote for Trump?
Of course she can’t because darkness and light do not mix. Trump loves this nation- Lisa, over herself and will cheat to make sure she stays in power
She’ll vote for Biden.
Because of their screwed up voting system up there! She cheated her way back in basically. Liberals are masters at cheating their way in.
Rat’s of a feather lie down together.
Another backstab by China Mitch. Installing her.
Does she really think ANYONE cares what she thinks about anything? What an ego. Just pull through lever for whomever you want and shut up about it.
Moderate Republican...my Aunt Minnie.
It’s all good though because I could never vote for the scheming conniving treacherous Murkowski.
She was elected because of ranked choice voting primary in Alaska. I believe it has since been rescinded.
Ridiculous assertion. Trump has proven his ability to move America towards the right, towards solvency, accountability and his ability to cut red tape and thwart the left. Not perfect but certainly head and shoulders above any in my lifetime and with more obstruction for the uniparty, deep state & globalists.
Anyone who is hung up on name calling when the Country is spiraling the sewer is part of the problem not the solution.
Just as negotiating with terrorists means you get more terror trying to please people who focus on non essentials rather than the big picture just screws the pooch even more.
Good. I don’t think politicians should have the right to vote anyway. They have the illegal aliens to do their voting for them.
obstruction from..not for
Another RINO rat that has to go.
Probably will vote for Stein (Green)
Can’t vote for Xiden, why not? She obviously believe everything he believes. Come on Alaska, you can do better than this witch.
