The Republican Party of Alaska has voted to condemn the actions of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell for his “direct contradiction of the party,” owing to his support for Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s re-election campaign in the state.
The party wrote that McConnell’s allied Super PAC, the Senate Leadership Fund, has “been used for malicious political attack ads” against Republican candidate Kelly Tshibaka, which are “gross distortions of the facts,” according to the resolution posted on Facebook. It was published Monday night after a 49-8 vote of the party’s Central Committee on Sunday.
Under Alaska’s new ranked-choice voting system and jungle primary, adopted in 2020, Murkowski advanced to the general election along with three other candidates, including Tshibaka. The prospect of two GOP candidates in the general election has caused alarm among some Republicans, who fear that attacks on Tshibaka and her low ranking on ballots by voters will cause the Democratic candidate, Pat Chesboro, to win the race.
