Wow, Sarah Palin will lose her Alaska Congressional Primary!

68% of the votes counted and her opponent, Peltola, has 35.1%, and Palin, 31.4%.

Great to see this grifter stopped.

Link here. Looks like it's an all candidate primary.

She will win the GOP nomination but she's losing to the Dem in the Primary

It's a ranked choice primary with the top 4 contenders of any party advancing. Palin got second place,

Is Peltola even crazier than Palin?

by Anonymousreply 3August 17, 2022 12:30 PM

I hope she sees failure from her house.

by Anonymousreply 4August 17, 2022 12:30 PM

Peltola is the Democrat. And depending on how the ranked choice voting shakes out, she actually might win,

I doubt it. She can't see lunacy inside her house.

You know, it could almost be fun to see the nuclear level fusion of moronics and stupidity she and Marjorie Taylor Greene would inevitably make together. ALMOST. I mean, if the Dems kept a strong majority in the House, which we just may pull off, Palin would prove for some much-needed mock-level levity. And yet, it's just much too dangerous to tempt that fate. The only silver lining in her possible win would be that even the Conservative Republicans don't take her seriously anymore. They'd schmooze her for her single vote, but she will never get legislation passed and in a state that's kept a blue dog Democrat-style Republican in the Senate for 40 years, there's no way Palin would ever ascend past junior House member. Let's just hope she stays put. But, OH the laughs she would bring us! PLUS the return of Tina Fey's Palin character! (Okay, maybe not that.)

Peltola actually sounds awesome. She's a native Alaskan and just strikes the exact tone Democrats should be taking this year.

Lisa Murkowski is in trouble. She finished first in the primary, but barely. Since the Democrat will also advance, she's got the chance of losing to the Trump-backed candidate unless the Democrat comes out and tells people to vote for her.

Alaska's system is weird.

I wonder if Peltola has routes in Finland. Her last name sounds Finnish.

I’ll never forgive Meghan McCain’s father for picking this cunt as his running mate.

That's her married name.

Maybe she’ll kill herself…

R12 thinks Peltola is on Ice Road Truckers, which she may be, idk

by Anonymousreply 16August 17, 2022 1:05 PM

R3 Why are you thanking R5. Your question wasn't answered.

[quote]Is Peltola even crazier than Palin?

R5 simply answered that she was a Democrat; that doesn't automatically make her sane.

Palin's former in-laws supported other candidate and held party at their house in support of other candidate.

Palin needs to fall on her sword who will help.

R18, I was waiting to see if someone had posted that.That's really all you need to know. They really are just trash on that side, aren't they?

Garbage woman.

Ranked Choice is definitely a tactic Dems will try to emulate in other states to rig elections.

Society never accepted her as a celebrity presence alone (as Kathy Griffin put it: "she really just wanted to be a Kardashian"), so she came crawling back to politics, when she couldn't even cut it as a governor. I can't wait for her to lose, and I fervently hope she does. Time will tell.

He didn't pick her; she was forced on him by the RNC so that they could pick up the women's vote after Hillary lost to Obama and the men's vote, because straights thought she was hot.

"Others in the mix are Sen. Lindsey Graham, the South Carolina Republican who is advising McCain. But he is a more likely choice for attorney general. And those close to McCain say the person he'd most like to pick is his close friend Sen. Joe Lieberman, the Connecticut Democrat turned independent who was Al Gore's running mate in 2000. But if you thought Ridge would bring huge problems with the base, just square them for Lieberman."
