Rep. Mary Peltola didn’t return to her hometown of Bethel to vote in the general election. Instead, she was in line at Anchorage City Hall, with news cameras trained on her and her new downtown liberal friends on Monday, one day before the election ends.
Peltola gets her absentee ballots mailed to her at her Prominence Pointe address in a dressy neighborhood of south Anchorage. She ordered her primary absentee ballot for that address, but instead voted early. And she ordered her general election absentee ballot for that address. But it appears she voted early in person again.
She and Mayor Suzanne LaFrance were in the line at City Hall, shaking hands and taking selfies with voters. There was not an American flag pin or hat anywhere to be seen.
Nick Begich, who is challenging Peltola for the one Alaska seat in Congress, voted at the Division of Elections office on Gambell Street on Monday.
During the last 25 years there are a lot of Natives who’ve literally transformed into yuppie White liberals. Just as annoying, fake, with superior attitudes and ignorant, except even worse than their liberal outside mentors.
Peltola is a NINO, Native in Name Only, and her heart and soul are not tied to the tundra.
She uses Bethel for selfish political reasons, not for the benefit of rural people, or any one else. Anchorage is fitting for her natural habitat.
Peltola is likely going to be seeking employment come January 2025 so no wonder she is hanging out with the Anchorage leftists. She may even have some extra campaign funds to share?🤔
Perhaps a cabinet position.
Ah… carpentry. A good trades job.
“She and Mayor Suzanne LaFrance were in the line at City Hall”
Stinking commies stick together because alone they are scared sh_tless.
Hilarious. An Alaskan complaining about socialist politicians. The state would crumble without handouts.
What was in your food when you were developing greg?
You are delusional, you know that right?
No wait you can’t, because you are delusional.
You know I’m right though.
When Mary loses, she’ll play the Hoffman, Edgmon game and claim the bush as home, but live in Anchorage. Then two years from now, I predict she runs for Lyman Hoffmans seat in the Senate.
Yep, I bet you are right. She’s been hustling the game for decades.
Boy, I sure hope you’re wrong with that comment. We do NOT need her closer to home in state politics making decisions for us!!! She doesn’t have the intelligence to decide when to go to the bathroom.
I hope I’m wrong too, but I’ve seen how this person operates going back to the 90’s.I agree she isn’t very smart. She is very manipulative and focused on her upward mobility.
Her hanging out with LaFrance is more than a photo opportunity. She’s working her contingency plan. A place on yet another city “team”? Assembly? Non profit?
Never had a real job so this is her environment.
While I wish we would be rid of her, I don’t think we have seen the last.
That’s definitely a step down, perception-wise. It’s not unprecedented, though: Keith Miller returned to the legislature after serving as governor.
Bye-bye, Mary. Thanks for squatting in Alaska’s congressional seat for two years. Now, go away and let an actual congressman take over. Maybe you can clean-up and find husband number six.
Anybody who claims to have earned a four-year college degree when they did not do (except if they experience dementia) is a dishonest and disreputable charlatan. And the term “charlatan” fits Mary to a T.
Vote for Nick Begich!
Peltola’s voting record tells the story. Missed 40% of votes this summer. Votes 86% with the Biden administration, allowing 16,000,000 illegals to compete with citizens. Voted for transgender surgery on children, voted for males in women’s sports, voted against oil exploration in AK, voted for spending, borrowing and printing money for wasteful government “projects”: $550,000,000,000 on Green garbage for connected DC insiders, $48,000,000,000 for rural hi-speed internet – nothing, nada. $641,000,000,000 spent on illegals to support their illegal existence in our Nation. $9,200,000,000 for EACH of the Big 3 automakers for EV subsidy – all up in smoke. $8,000,000,000 for 7 EV charging stations 2 are inop. If this has to be explained to you, you haven’t done your homework.
I saw a sign that said early votes won’t be counted till after the Nov 5th votes are, Seemed a little odd, Let’s hope Alaska snubs Peltola
State statute dictates that.

You will never be free as you are a bought and paid for serf.
Get back to the field and plant more crops.
She lives in an 800K home in Anchorage – why would she want to slum it in Bethel on election party night!
She must stay in Anchorage for 6 months for her tax deduction.
