AK Popcorn -Palin Tells Supporters to Stop Donating to GOP

[kpete]

Sarah Palin went nuclear on the Republican Party, “claiming the GOP sabotaged her Alaska House race and that they deserved their drubbing in the midterms,” The Independent reports.

“In a conspiracy-laden Instagram post, Ms Palin blamed the ‘cockamamie’ ranked choice voting system, Senator Lisa Murkowski and the ‘dark, dysfunctional GOP machine’ after she was seemingly trounced by Democrat Mary Peltola for a second time in three months.”

Said Palin: “The GOP establishment deserves losses until it’s willing to fight for what is right. They opposed me every step of the way in my Congressional bid, which is par for the course.”

1. Your time is over, Sarah. Accept it and move on....nt

[louis-t]

2. C'mon, Sarah. Give us a red wave....

bye bye.

[catbyte]

3. She would've been trounced on Tuesday even without ranked-choice voting.

"The party of personal responsibility" always defaults to blaming everyone but themselves when they bite the big one.

4. Sour grapes much?!?!

[no_hypocrisy]

5. I'm just surprised that she said it before Trump did.

6. Wait. What? Did Petola WIN the Senate Seat? !!!!!! ??????

[waddirum]

14. House of Representatives

not Senate

[msfiddlestix]

15. oh thanks. I saw Lisa Murkowski's name in the text, obviously I misunderstood Palin's rubbish.

[Botany]

7. The upper part of the Alaskan and Republican Parties know that Palin is toxic and in all ....

... likelihood had to quit as Governor of Alaska after a second "off the books" luxury home that the
Palin's owned with views of Mt. Denali was found not far from a newly redone state highway.

8. Has she lost, officially? (nt)

[Yonnie3]

13. Not yet

I'm not sure if that was a rhetorical question ...

No one has the 50% to end the ranked choice election. The last I looked Pelota had 47% with Palin at 27% and the other rep at 24%. There was 80% counted at that time. If Pelota gets that 50% in the first round it is over and Palin lost.

It is numerically possible that Palin could win in a second round as she might have been the second choice for the ones who voted for the other republican candidate.

9. Wonder if Murkowski would consider flipping?

[Wounded Bear]

11. She's pretty much an (I) as it is, isn't she?

I doubt she'd go full (D), but she has been supportive of some mildly leftist shit.

[central scrutinizer]

12. Maybe do a Bernie and caucus with the Democrats

Without being a Democrat

[MoonchildCA]

17. Maybe more like an Angus King,

but yeah, that would be great.

[Zambero]

19. She can thank a lot of Democrats for this most recent victory

The last letter of Murkowski's last name warrants a capital letter. "I". Lisa may not always vote with Democrats or support their policy positions, but given what has become of her party, she might feel more at home caucusing with them.

[The Third Doctor]

10. I remember that people worked very hard to get her elected

During the recall and she turned around and quit when she became a media darling. She was having a few scandals too. Even moved to the 48 to make money. The people up there haven't forgotten that.

16. Hey Sarah, the people of AK just don't like you. Don't feel bad though

Masked Singer? Dancing with uhm “Stars”?
You can still perform

[ananda]

18. Boy those Repubs sure are sore losers.

Not a decent loser among em.

[Takket]

20. looking for answers? look in the mirror

[Zambero]

21. Palin is the prefect running mate for TFG

Watch out MTG, there's a "quality" candidate out there!
