After Lisa Murkowski, Kelly Tshibaka and Patricia Chesbro, it’s not clear who will fill out Alaska’s general election ballot for the U.S. Senate seat.
The majority of voters going to the polls Aug. 16 will likely be choosing one of three candidates for Alaska’s U.S. Senate seat as their pick-one primary option: incumbent Republican Lisa Murkowski, Republican Party-endorsed Kelly Tshibaka or Democratic Party-endorsed Patricia Chesbro. It’s the top four candidates, though, who will advance to the November ranked choice voting general election. are on the ballot.
“I think it is anybody’s guess,” said Amber Lee, communications and political consultant based in Anchorage. “There are some people who have run multiple times, like Edgar , who may have slightly more name recognition, but it could literally be anyone.” Lobbyist and political consultant Jim Lottsfeldt similarly said he had “no clue.” He wasn’t familiar with the rest of the candidate pool and considers the competition for the fourth seat a “jump ball.”
“I mean, I guess I could imagine that some people go, ‘Oh, Professor Blatchford, I know him from UAA,’ or, ‘Edgar Blatchford, he was a commissioner under Frank Murkowski.’ You know, he’s run a couple times so Edgar will get some votes,” said Lottsfeldt, who works for a super-political action committee for Lisa Murkowski.
