The District 10 — south Anchorage district Republicans — endorsed Nick Begich for Congress on Tuesday evening.
Now, 13 Republican districts are endorsing Begich, and not a single district has endorsed Nancy Dahlstrom. There are more endorsements for Begich to come, Must Read Alaska has learned.
Districts that have announced their endorsement for Begich now include 1, 6, 8, 10, 17, 23, 25, 26, 28, 29, 34, and 36.
There are 36 organized districts in the state, so District 10’s endorsement brings the percentage going on record for Nick Begich to 36% of those organized districts.
Also, six of seven Alaska Republican women’s clubs and both of the Young Republican clubs endorse Begich. Rep. Byron Donalds, inside Donald Trump’s inner circle, also endorses Begich.
Dahlstrom, who has physically disappeared from the Alaska race in recent days, is said to be raising money in Wyoming. Her campaign is being mainly run by D.C. political action committees.
District 10 also decided to endorse Rep. Craig Johnson for reelection, and refused to endorse his false-flag Republican opponent Chuck Kopp.
The latest Division of Elections reports shows that 6,594 Alaskans have voted — 4,324 of those are early voters and the remaining 2,270 are absentee ballots received by the Division of Elections, so far.
The primary ends at 8 p.m. on Tuesday night, Aug. 20. Learn how to vote absentee or vote early at this link.
Good for Nick, but what’s Nancy doing in Wyoming? Only person to raise money with down there is Liz Cheney
Nancy Dahlstrom is in Wyoming?! Isn’t the election next week? Why isn’t she doing her job in Alaska? This is the first election she is overseeing as Lt. Governor.
No wonder these districts are supporting Begich. He actually is campaigning in Alaska!
Nancy won’t come out against ranked choice, has no in-state support besides her boss, has done nothing in her job as Lt. Gov and has to leave Alaska to raise money. Got it.
Begich is working. Nancy is not.
My vote goes to Begich.
I support the man but whatever you think of Begich, you have to admit he’s a hell of a fighter. Alaska would do well to have someone like that again.
