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, 33, 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.
