Alaska Rejects Palin, Also Re-elects Murkowski

 

Former half- term Alaska governor, failed Vice Presidential candidate, and grifter Sarah Palin will lose her bid to be Alaska's sole Representative in the House, according projections based on unofficial run-off election results. Incumbent Rep. Mary Peltola (D) retains the seat she won just months ago to complete the term of the late Republican fossil Don Young. 

Trump nemesis Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who voted to remove the Malignant Loser in his second impeachment trial, is projected to retain her seat in the Senate, defeating Trump cultist Kelly Tshibaka. Alaska uses a ranked system for their elections, and the second choices of voters tallied put both Peltola and Murkowski as projected winners over their far right wing opponents.

This election hopefully means the demise of Palin's national political ambitions, although her ignorance and delusions might not stop her from running again in the future. Also, the voters of Alaska refused to punish Murkowski for her votes against the Malignant Loser, signaling his waning influence.
