Trump-endorsed Kelly Tshibaka slammed Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-AK, for appearing two-faced in advance of Tuesday’s Republican primary in Alaska.
Speaking with host Matthew Boyle on Breitbart News Saturday, Tshibaka said Murkowski’s 21 year career has been marred by lying to voters about her Senate voting record.
“She lies to us. Tshibaka stated that she says one thing in Alaska, and does exactly the opposite in D.C. She’ll speak about the infrastructure bill she wrote with Bernie Sanders but won’t reveal that radical extremists within the Biden administration have piled up new regulations against us in this bill. It drives up the rate of inflation so high that we won’t see additional funding, they’ve got all these regulations and permits we’ve got a jump through that we’re gonna see barely any infrastructure.”
Tshibaka continued pointing to Murkowski’s flip-flop politics. It’s all about Green New Deal. Just a few months ago, she ran ads claiming that she was an ardent defender of Second Amendment rights while actively working with Joe Biden and Democrats to support gun control and gun rights. It is this thing that cost her her NRA endorsement. So now, she has dropped her reading with them. I would have the RA’s highest rating. We are strongly pro-Second Amendment.
“She opposed the Democrats’ attempts to codify Roe verse Wade.” Tshibaka said. She claims she does not believe there should be any late-term abortions. However, just weeks ago she introduced the bill to allow for taxpayer-funded late-term abortions. And she has consistently voted in favor of funding the national abortion providers using taxpayer funds. She does this all the time. This is why everyone in the state says, “It’s the right time to change.” ‘”
Tshibaka explained then how Alaska’s elections system favours Murkowski. In November, everyone can vote for the top candidate. If you wish, you may vote for two or more backup candidates. So you will rank your third, fourth, and fifth choices. If the candidate that comes in first doesn’t cross the 50% line – get at least half the votes in the election – then the fourth candidate drops off. The second, third and fourth places get reallocated. If the third candidate leaves, their third, fourth, and fifth place are re-allocated .”
.
Tshibaka thinks she and Murkowski are certain to be included in November’s final group before explaining Alaska’s political demographics. Here’s Alaska data. About 54% of Alaskans vote for the Republican candidate. President Trump won by double digits in 2020, despite being out-spent almost two to one by our Democratic candidate. Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK), our other Republican senator, won by 13 points. The Democrat candidate usually gets between 38 and 40% of the vote.
Tshibaka’s primary election will be on Tuesday, August 16.
