Late Wednesday night, it became official: Mary Peltola, the sole Democratic candidate in an open primary field, won the at-large House seat for the state of Alaska, which was left vacant after the death of longtime Representative Don Young. Peltola defeated her top opponent Sarah Palin by three percentage points in Alaska’s first ranked choice election. She is the first Alaska Native to ever win statewide office and the first woman to hold the at-large Congressional seat in the state’s history.
I’m wondering how the republicans will try adjust. They can’t ignore or lie about their position on Roe v. Wade. And normal people are tired of MAGA and Q.
love her, such good news that she won!
I so love the typo the substituted "Pain" for "Palin".
So good to read good news!!!! Congratulations!
Hopefully this will be a trend going into November and beyond. 🥰
Ah Ho!
thank you for adding the link making it so easy to donate to her campaign!
I wonder why she is the first Native Alaskan to serve in Congress?
What is "ranked choice voting"? Thanks.

Republican mantra: if we lost the system was rigged.
