Interesting, I would have thought it would be lean R. I think if Palin is 3rd, the other republican would win this seat easily.

2. Good thing I didn't publish my election model tonight...

Something to consider: Alaska has one media market and its direct cheap relative to other House races. Worth contributing to,

3. I've seen people mention that she will get a lot more money in Nov. due to this win.

I still think it will largely depend on who place 1st and 2nd in Nov.

4. What does AKAL mean?

Of course, I know it's about Alaska, but have never seen it abbreviated as such.

5. Alaska - At large

I think At large is used when there is only 1 seat in that state.

7. Thank you.

6. Alaska At Large

I think it is called that because there is just the one district that represents all of Alaska.

8. Thank you.

9. Peltola's public profile should rise as Alaska's incumbent Congressional Representative

That will give her a boost for November's race.
