Former President Donald Trump has endorsed Nancy Dahlstrom for Congress for Alaska.
On Truth Social, he wrote his endorsement today:
“Nancy Dahlstrom will be a tremendous Congresswoman for the Great People of Alaska, just as she was as your Lieutenant Governor. Nancy is a proven fighter! In Congress, she will work to Secure the Border, Create Jobs, Lower Taxes, Promote American Energy Independence, Support our Incredible Military and Police Officers, and Defend our always under siege Second Amendment.
“Her opponent, Nick Begich, has Democrat tendencies but, most importantly, he refused to get out of this Race last time, which caused the Republicans to lose this important seat to Mary Peltola, someone who is very unpopular, allowed the Democrats to terminate ANWR (something which every Republican President since Ronald Reagan wanted, but only I got!), and is doing a terrible job for Alaska.
“Nancy Dahlstrom is a WINNER, and has my Complete and Total Endorsement. SHE WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN!”
Begich was the first to file in the race in 2022 and the first to file for this year’s race, having filed nearly one year ago. Dahlstrom filed in November. Begich, a Republican who has the support of numerous Republican clubs around the state, faces the uphill battle with some voters due to having the “Begich” name.
Must Read Alaska’s Monday newsletter ran a poll on the congressional race, which we have now closed, considering the endorsement of Trump, which is considered pivotal for Republicans.
