Speaking of votes: Possibly worse for Republicans than Murkowski’s impeachment stance was another portion of her Daily News interview in which she said she was open to leaving the party. As Murkowski told the paper: “If the Republican Party has become nothing more than the party of Trump, I sincerely question whether this is the party for me.”
Thanks to Jon Ossoff and Rev. Raphael Warnock’s victories in Georgia this week, the incoming Senate will be a 50-50 tie with Vice President–elect Kamala Harris casting the tie-breaking vote to give Democrats the majority. If Murkowski were to switch parties, that would offer significant leeway to incoming Majority Leader Chuck Schumer as he seeks to push through President-elect Joe Biden’s agenda by increasing the Democrats’ razor-thin Senate majority.

if she pulls this stunt she is GONE in 2022.
She may as well leave. It was recently proven most of the GOP are actually democrats masquerading as Republican anyway.
Nobody cares, Murkowski. You are a loser.
Regarding their blatant ignoring of vote-counting fraud in conjunction with electoral votes, I wonder if ignoring their job to guarantee each state a republican form of government in conjunction with arguably violating Section 3 of the 14th Amendment has possibly already stripped people like post-17th Amendment ratification Murkowski of their legislative powers?
"Article IV, Section 4: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government [emphasis added], and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence."
”14th Amendment, Section 3: No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof [emphasis added]. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."
We may be getting a mostly new Congress. =^)
Insights welcome.
Get out of the GOP, b*tch, we don’t want you in our party. Get out, NOW.
IIRC when GWB was president and the Senate became 50-50, the Republicans, ...in the interest of fairness ... shared the committee chairmanships. Somehow, I am not hearing this now.
Yippee, she’s on her way out!
If true Conservative, Joe Miller would have won, just think how different things would be.
He talks about the Mother Witch on his site: https://joemiller.us/
I don’t give a damn what she does.
Bye.
Someone should have keyed her desk.
Might as well- she has not been an actual Republican anyway.
Where’s Kathy in Alaska? Help!!!
K—tkowski ran as a write-in in 2010 and usurped Joe Miller’s rightful GOP primary victory. She can get f——d, the author of this article can get f——d.
Alaska people are all zonked out on pot.
They couldn’t give a polar bear’s pile.
It’s time to throw the bitch out. She is not a Republican. She’s a communist.
As long as she brings home the pork, that’s all that matters to them.
All politics is local.
If she leaves the Republican party, it would be the best thing that could happen.
Why do they need pork?
They have whale blubber.
The sooner she gets permanently lost on an iceberg, the better...
