Before boarding Air Force 2 this morning for his trip to Fairbanks, Vice President JD Vance said their were some ummm, kinks…to work out with that whole pesky Alaska LNG thing. “Obviously.”

Reed's list also includes three U.S. Senate candidates who, according to recent polls, are all in competitive races: Mary Peltola (AK), who was one of six Democrats to vote for the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which contained anti-trans and anti-DEI provisions.

Meanwhile, in Ketchikan, a planning commissioner asked quite out loud "how much more do white people have to pay for" the Ketchikan Indian Community. The Ketchikan Gateway Assembly will vote on Monday - at which time we’ll learn whether that was racist af. 🫩

The Alaska Republicans built an entire winter gala around a senator whose most famous cold-weather decision was fleeing Texas. Weird.

Remember last year when Rep. Jamie Allard called American Samoans “rats” and declared voter fraud was here in Alaska? Whelp - the state Department of Law dropped the cases. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

This is VERY strange. Kelly Tshibaka is taking credit for getting two candidates who botched their financial disclosures put back on the ballot, and she wants us to take this as a win for election integrity.

Now THIS is interesting. Petersburg Dan Sullivan is now listed as a Registered Republican on the Division of Elections candidate page. Definitely was not expecting that.

Wow! Rep. Andrew Gray is going hard in this letter to Acting Attorney General Mills! He's calling on the Department of Law to prosecute Treg and Jodi Taylor for refusing to file accurate financial disclosures!

Jamie Allard is over there discouraging Republicans from ranking, and encouraging Dave Bronson to drop out, all while being dragged by her most ardent of supporters. 🥹

Matthew Beck @thebluealaskan.com · 26/08/2026
Wow, the sparks are flying now! A post written by Robert Wall, the District 8 chairman of the Alaska Republican Party, is pushing back hard against a blog post by Suzanne Downing, who claims that Dave Bronson signed a document saying he would drop out if he came in second after the primary.

In a video posted to Facebook, deeply embarrassing extremist Dave Bronson, the former Anchorage mayor who ran the city into the ground, says he is not dropping out of the governor's race.

Stopped over at the Alaska Democrats election night watch party. Tom Begich & Julia Hnilicka are here - they’ll head over to the Wildbirch later this evening for their own watch party as initial election results drop.

Nothing this election cycle is less surprising than Dave Bronson’s and Bernadette Wilson’s lunatic supporters behaving exactly like they did during the COVID culture wars those two fueled. Disgusting.

So…about that alleged Peltola campaign turmoil the right-wing blogs have been going on about - per Peltola’s campaign via Politico - there were some staff updates transitioning into the general election. Dep cM Cheryl Bruce is now campaign manager, and Anton has transitioned to a new campaign role.

The far-right slop blogs are eyeballing voters standing in line and assigning them a party registration. Riveting stuff.

Went to watch dinosaurs eat people this afternoon (fun!) and saw this from the League of Women Voters of Alaska about the Aug 18 primary election.

The MAGA infested Undemocratic Alaska Division of Elections will spend a fortune telling people how sacred the right to vote is, and then stiff the Utqiagvik grandmother who agreed to run the polling place for a couple of weeks.

That new Fair Deal Alaska Super PAC has now spent a whopping $621,147 elevating nut job candidates Carol Hafner and Richard Grayson who don’t even live here. This is an increase of $134k since mailers and digital began landing earlier this week.
