A stealth poll is being conducted in Alaska among likely primary voters this week. The liberal voters are getting a push poll message that diminishes Democrat Rep. Mary Peltola, and enhances the image of Nancy Dahlstrom for Congress.
Conservatives are getting a different message. They are being told that Republican conservative Nick Begich is bad and Nancy Dahlstrom is good.
Nick Begich is endorsed by the Freedom Caucus, but the phone poll hired hand isn’t mentioning that.
Who is doing the poll? Sources say it’s not really a poll but a phone-banking operation under the guise of a poll.
Begich has agreed to stay positive about the other Republican candidates, of which Dahlstrom is one. She has also made that agreement, but the “poll” being conducted is being done by a group that is clearly associated with Dahlstrom.
There are 10 days left in the primary election, and groups supporting Dahlstrom are spending $1 million in Alaska in 10 days — about $100,000 a day. Word out of D.C. is that if Dahlstrom finishes behind Begich she’ll be asked to get out of the race. Thus, desperation may be at work.
