If Sen. Lisa Murkowski is to retain her seat in the U.S. Senate she will have to do so without the support of the Alaska Republican Party. On March 13, three quarters of the Alaska Republican Party State Central Committee leadership voted to censure Murkowski for a litany of grievances that indicate she no longer supports the core mission and vision of the GOP.

Whether a break with the GOP will hinder Murkowski’s bid for a fourth term in the U.S. Senate remains to be seen. She is up for reelection in 2022, but this time around she can take advantage of the new ranked choice voting scheme that a narrow majority of Alaskans approved in the last general election.

Ranked-choice voting does away with all party primaries in favor of a nonpartisan primary in which the top four candidates go on to the general election. Many political observers see this as an advantage for Murkowski who is one of the most liberal Republicans in the U.S. Senate. By having a general, nonpartisan primary, candidates can hide their political affiliations and thereby conceal their true political philosophy from voters in the primary.

  • She's not a Rhino or Republican - she's a liberal holding a republicans seat in the Senate. Send her back to the home in Alaska she crawled out of and out a real patriot in there.

  • And THEY SHOULD ABANDON HER.  It's about damn time McConnell!!!!!!  Murkowski votes with the liberal socialists every damn time, GET HER THE HELL OUT OF THERE!!!!!!!!!!

  • Last I heard Sarah Pallin was "mulling" the possibility!

  • We need a power vote when these voted-in people turn into RINOS and get them out as soon as tomorrow! Do it on the internet making it as secure as your bank transactions!

  • Sarah Palin must meet with President Trump if she wants that Senate seat. His endorsement of her will go a long way to get Murkowski out of there. This is becoming a must win state for the GOP. One less RINO should be the sounding cry of Alaska.

  • Go Palin

  • I will support whoever President Trump endorsed and we know it's the lady who ran for VP with the rino McCain

  • I hope that Alaskas can find a candidate who really believes in the Constitution and that it needs to be followed.  But then, they elected Murkowski so I wonder.

  • Alaska needs to make sure the DEMS do not mess around in their election process because they are going to have to if the DEMS want to win. 

  • Slather Murkowski with barbecue sauce and leave her out on the ice flows for the polar bears.

    The Eskimos did for their elderly, and it is the green thing to do!
