The Alaska Republican Party gathered for its quarterly meeting in Fairbanks and made numerous endorsements this week. We have reported already that Nick Begich was endorsed for Congress, Jared Goecker was endorsed for the Eagle River state Senate seat, and Rep. Jamie Allard was endorsed for House District 23.
In addition, here are some of the other candidates and incumbents who received endorsements:
Rep. Cathy Tilton, House District 26 – Wasilla and MatSu. Tilton, first elected in 2014, is unopposed and is the House Speaker.
Rep. Craig Johnson, House District 28, South Anchorage. Johnson is being challenged by a Republican who is in poor standing with conservatives — former Rep. Chuck Kopp, who was one of the defenders of the catch-and-release crime bill SB 91 when he served in office.
Rep. Stanley Wright, House District 22, East Anchorage.
Elexie Moore, running for House District 28, Wasilla, for the seat being vacated by Rep. Jesse Sumner.
Rep. Sarah Vance, House District 6, Homer.
Jeremy Bynum, House District 1, Ketchikan, running for the seat being vacated by Rep. Daniel Ortiz.
Heather Gottschall, House District 13, Anchorage, running against longtime Democrat incumbent Rep. Andy Josephson.
Rep. Frank Tomaszewski, House District 34, Fairbanks, running for reelection.
Rep. DeLena Johnson, House District 25, greater Palmer area, running for reelection, unopposed.
Some Republicans did not get endorsed because their districts didn’t get organized to request the endorsement from the entire party.
Our district Representative turned down the opportunity to have his district endorse him, so it is not always the district’s doing.
It would have been nice if Rob Yundt could have been endorsed over ultra rino David Wilson, who was censured by the party for joining democraps in a democrap takeover. Wilson has been a reliable flunkie for the democraps for YEARS.
