Rep. Don Young has represented Alaska’s at-large seat since 1973, earning him title of “Dean of the House” for being the longest currently serving member of Congress.

On Friday, a new Alaska Survey Research poll found Young trailing Alyse Galvin by one percentage point.

Now a GOP super PAC aligned with House leadership is now launching what Politico described as “a surprise final-weekend effort to save Alaska Rep. Don Young from defeat on Tuesday.”

The effort, reportedly in the six-figures, intends to target 100,000 Alaskans in the final days of the campaign.

The poll found 99% of Alaskans knew of Young after his 45 years in Congress, but that 44% have a negative opinion of him.

1. One lousy point? That's within the margin of error in ANY poll.

They must be awfully unsure of his popularity to pull out all the stops for one lousy point.

Surely they must have been aware that 44% of Alaskans had a negative opinion of him. And if they didn't?

They're not doing their jobs.

5. Considering he won by 14 in 2016, i think they must be concerned....

2. Professional politician, and young's greatest weakness that galvin needs to

hammer home using special interest money trying to buy another house seat and a yes man for corporations agenda

4. Time for the GOP to cue the TV ads.

The usual TV ads that play in other markets across the country in the last few days of a campaign saying the Dem candidate's mother was a crack head hooker. And the ones saying her father was a draft dodging homosexual.

6. Won't work,

Especially if trump keeps talking, tweeting , and making their party look foolish for backing him on a daily basis. Which he will. Their policies are a disaster for the American people, and this election is a referendum on trump , and the gop protecting him, and corruption , and against liars, and thieves .
