It’s kind of nice how Palin and Pertola seem to be good friends despite being political foes.
This helps Pertola in rank choice voting as their is real animosity between Palin and Begich. Also Bye will split the vote in the first round as well
Pertola could win again
The democrats and republicans are in cahoots with each other.
@@nano2424 obviously… why would republicans want to split their votes like this?
@@nano2424 they play cahoots? nice
I am not an Alaskan, NYer here but lemme compliment Alaskans and all 4 candidates. Nice and polite , no one lobbed hateful attacks and everyone got their ideas and points across. Very awesome to see. Maybe I will watch more Alaskan debates.
You must have missed the 2022 Alaskan Governor debate. The democrat kept blaming the last 2 held Governor positions for past actions then basically said he would get a foreign power like 🇨🇳 to invest in Alaska. Looks like I'm Voting for Dunleavy again.
@@wayne4740 He didn't miss, he's probably a NY Yankee dumbacrat.
Because we have rank choice voting, I think most candidates understand being devisive isn't going to do them any favors.
I'm someone who has lost faith in the Democratic party completely, yet I still think Alaska is capable of electing a well-meaning Democrat.
Which I don't think is possible in most states these days
@@chillonfunsmart4929 Can and did! Peltola is a gem.
I ranked Peltola first. She has a record of working well with others to get work done.
@Mark L our town is powered by hydroelectric and so our electricity costs aren’t subject to fluctuations in world petroleum prices like in other places in our country. Peltola supports developing our fossil fuels and other forms of energy in Alaska. Your stereotypes are stale and you’re obviously not from this state.
Palin's voice is so grating, Belich is very smarmy, Bye has some good points but wearing your sunglasses on your head is goofy, Peltola is quiet but sounds like she is very much for the local people.
wow! chris bye and mary peltola actually has common decency and respect!
@Ghost King edit: grand burn, forever here on the internet, Ghost King said that this was a cover up lol.
Well, neither are Sarah Palin, so of course.
@@txnmia8613 o o f e r o n i
I was really impressed with Bye. Sounds like a regular down to earth, common sense guy.
Bye thinks it's to expensive to transport oil to the Bush, but desires additional extraction from the slope, where its expensive to transport it from 🤣
Yes I agree with you but I'm I can't vote for him because he's not sure of himself he's trying really hard but he's not sure of himself
He's the only LP candidate in the race. That's reason enough to vote for him.
Can't trust someone who wears sunglasses on their head indoors or some one that only reads fishing magazines.
@@debmcgerrigle3477 Is that right?
You al are good-thank you.
💙 💙 💙 PELTOLA 💙 💙 💙
@Mark L Why do you give so much power to any politician. None of these four going to influence the oil and gas market in Alaska. The two major projects in Alaska, Willow and Pikka, are already moving forward. Trump or Biden or any current politician influences those projects. Those permits were sold to oil and gas companies decades ago. And like any free market, production comes when the market is ready.
Sarah’s life probably flashed b4 her eyes with the reading question lol
Probably because she's illiterate. Lol
these kind of questions cannot be answered properly in the amount of time that is given. Whoever works harder usually is the better candidate.. Not how they talk or what they say.. Not always...
I’m a little surprised they don’t know more about renwable energy in AK. Matanuska Electric Association broke ground in August on an 8.5MW solar project. Kodiak is hydro, wind and a flywheel. On the Kenai there is a 48MWh Tesla Battery and hydro. Cordova is using hydro micro grid to power lithium ion batteries. Hughes installed solar cutting diesel by 25%. The examples go on and on. Whenever Sarah doesn’t know something she just falls back on “it’s the government‘s fault”, “ it’s a boondoggle“. And Nick wants a nuclear project with equipment that doesn’t even exist yet.
@Ghost King do-do bird. You’re ill informed. 22% of US energy is Renwable. Capitalism wants Renwable energy, not backwards old swamp creatures.
M M- Toured the Kodiak power grid two years ago while fishing there. Impressive however, they benefit from a particular terrain that lends itself to the out-of-box system that few other remote areas have. I am concerned that another "high tech" hydro solution, like in SE AK that was funded to a tune of millions of dollars provided very little actual cost savings. CIRI's Fire Island wind farm is another great example, over $70m spent on those few wind turbines providing 2% of ANC's power needs. Micro-reactors have the best cost-to-benefit ratio. KState has been operating one for decades. Newer models show fantastic capabilities. With each, there are drawbacks. Tidal hydro has electric fields that harm fish and mammals. Wind turbines require copious amounts of maintenance and petroleum lubricants, additionally, the recycling process for these turbines has not been considered yet. Texas has a graveyard for wind turbines outside San Angelo that is truly impressive to see. I am willing to look at any solutions that provide Alaskans with clean affordable energy. There is a great homemade hydro solution near McCarthy built off a small waterfall that provides energy even during the coldest winter.
Praying that this is Palin’s last campaign.
so Begich wasnt allowed to give his opinion on Ukraine?? I watched all of the debates APM posted and the hosts continuously got confused and messed up the flow
Good catch. We realized at the end of the debate that the moderators missed Begich in the order of candidates in that question. We try to give equal time to all candidates and that was an unfortunate accident on our part. Thank you for watching the debates though!
@@alaskapublic I am sorry for being rude. Thank you guys providing these debates for us for free on UA-cam. Myself and all other Alaskans appreciate your hard work.
I voted Mary Peltola for Congress
even if she works for both sides. IF Dems win the hosue dont matter, because they run the country more to the ground, we need to make sure the right person gets in. And anymore people in Democrat side usually proves to mess everything up. But people keep wanting same ones in there. She wont get no one to work with her, and i bet she maybe just go with the flow with Dems. That is what Dems are about being a cult.
Good news, I love real democracy!!
Oh my gosh
I really thought Sarah Palin would win this in a landslide, I was wrong. I thought the best candidate was Nick Begich, although I did love the views on Chris Bye as well.
If you had said Palin would be competitive, I might have agreed with that. But a landslide? Why is that your perspective?
@@brianhickman6315 Her years of experience in government.
CONGRATULATIONS, all of you RINOS; you have succeeded in keeping Palin out of office by voting for a socialist-globalist. QUESTION: Why would y'all support a man who owns and operated corporations that merely serve to outsource billions of dollars of IT work to Asia? ANSWER: Y'all support a man who owns and operated corporations that merely serve to outsource billions of dollars of IT work to Asia because you are RINOS. The democrats simply hold back Alaska from prosperity that could be realized, if it were not for the economic subjugation from the ponderous regulations from democrats. Trump was right about everything, as was Palin. You will not fare too well, once WWIII becomes kinetic, and, you will have to SERIOUSLY worry about Russia, the CCP of China and North Korea as an imminent threat. But, keep voting for the socialist-globalists. I have a feeling that you are the ones who voted for Murkowski; that was also a bad decision on your parts.
Ok, I watched this for a second time. I think I’m leaning Begich now, but that Bye fellow seemed incredibly on point.
If it came down to it, would you rather have Palin or Peltola?
@@coreyeverett5500 I would never consider voting for Peltola. I am purely ranking the red.
Ive felt so betrayed by the Democratic party, that I really don't like the idea of supporting it anymore.
I think without ranked choice voting it would be impossible to elect a Democrat with integrity at the stage.
I do like Pertola more than Palin.
But I trust Democrats less than any other group.
I was a strong Nick Begich supporter but the more I investigate the more I stand behind Chris Bye.
I love that Mary and Sarah !
Everyone blows Don Young's horn. He was in Congress for 49yrs. Way, way too long. That's why we have so many problems.
God Bless Don Young.
May he rest in peace.
We need term limits for every position in government
@@ronjones1077I’ve lived in 2 states that has opposite term limit laws, where one had 2 for life, my current one has none
It’s a problem
Lets go sarah
I liked and could relate to Bye.
40:37 Based.
Transportation of oil to the Bush is expensive he says. Then dosnt understand why Alaska oil is more expensive then the lower 48
Brett- Most fuel used in AK is refined in the lower 48 and then transported back to AK. We have three very small refineries in AK that produce heating oil and a very limited supply of jet fuel and diesel. All fuel for the bush is transported by barge traffic or in rare instances, by air. This transportation cost is paid for by consumers and by the state under a program that buffers the actual cost of fuel. We can reduce this cost by refining more fuel in the state, addressing the Jones Act, and allowing ANCs to pick up a share of the transportation costs to bush villages. Additionally, we can use alternative energy methods such as wind, solar, flywheels (Kodiak), limited hydro (Kodiak), and nuclear (micro-reactors). None of these are without second and third-order effects, however. Micro-reactors offer the best overall energy solution. Fuel will still be necessary for vehicles such as boats and 4-wheelers.
Want to know how roads should be fixed. Raise the gas tax. None said anything.
26:30 Sarah Palin and Mary Peltola are so sweet. :)
Prior to the primary, Nick agreed to back out of the race if Palin got more votes, but he didn't! Now he's going to split the Republican vote, and hand it to the Dem candidate.
The reason why he’s still in is because he would have beaten Peltola by 8,000 votes if he had come in second while Palin has no path to victory even in a head to head because 65% of Alaska’s have a negative view of her. If he dropped out republicans would have no chance to win. Too many Alaskans hate Sarah Palin.
@Mark L Republicans who voted for Beigich tended to be more moderate leaning compared to Peltola voters who are diehard Republicans. Therefore, in the second round if Palin was eliminated nearly all of her voters would go to Beigich since Palin voters would likely prefer a less right wing Republican over Peltola. however, some Beigich voters would rather have a Democrat like Peltola than Palin, so when Beigich was eliminated, most of his voters went to Palin but a good chunk of them went to Peltola, such that Peltola won by a nearly 10 point margin against Palin. So if Beigich won in the initial rounds, he'd have a better shot at beating Peltola than Palin did. Now i think in the special election, had Beigich won the initial rounds, he would've just barely beaten Peltola and become the AK representative. however, Peltola has become quite popular and has more recognition than she did during that special election, and so I think she still would've won against Beigich in the general election, although the margin wouldn't have been nearly 10 points like it was w Palin
Abortion? Constitutional convention? Sarah Palin walking out as governor and going Hollywood? Seriously no mention of any of these issues?
Alaskans hate abortion. Period.
@@JoelMMcKinney You're right. No one likes abortion. But if this were truly about limiting abortion, it would be a bipartisan effort to expand access to birth control in order to prevent the need for abortions in the first place. Not stripping the Alaskans' right to privacy. It's not about abortion my friend, wake up. It's about government overreach into the lives of citizens.
Palin is such a goofball. Governor Quitter is a joke.
Go Mary. Best candidate on the stage.
"Hydro, that's an exciting thing to start looking at for rural Alaska..." ?? Sarah Palin. Seriously? Have you even been out to rural Alaska? Gonna dam up the Kuskoquim and Yukon for it? The Kobuk or Noatak rivers? Idiotic answer. You need to start reading and quit jogging/sweating.
How can you have a House and Senate debate with all the politicians running and Pebble Creek doesn't come up for either. I have been here for 4 years and it seemed the biggest debate in the state when I got here and the issue has not abated in any way.
I put this on the moderators. Stop asking idiot questions like "how will you work across the aisle?" "Why can't we all just get along? How about where do you stand on Pebble Creek.
The boilerplate image is of a woman who obviously cares more about her hair than anything inside her skull.
Todd Palin couldn’t take it anymore
Because she is an idiot and her voice is so annoying.
😂
😊
Lord Alaska.. how did you get Mary?
Sarah is ranking Peltola 2nd
It's about time they actually got someone that will get something done.
Mary is the most likable candidate personally even though I disagree with her on policy
@@tommyanomaly6193 she seems very dull and no fight in her. Even if she can maybe .. work with both sides. She comes off as weak. If Dems go against her in the house pressure her she seems like the kind that would sell out and do as told as every other Dem.
Because Sarah Palin is the worst candidate the GOP has ever put up. Nick would have won bad he come in 2nd.
Sara Palin is my favorite. Other republicans are still good but we have to unite under one candidate. And Sara Palin was the most popular in the last election.
Where are Clinton's emails
VA Suicide hotline is awful. After calling I felt more suicidal then ever...
Sadly you’re still here 😢
@@josedoe8555 Fu.. off!
@@josedoe8555 You gonna hide behind a fake persona or you want to say that shit in my face!
Call 988 instead
Hang in there
Trump we had cheap diesel
Yes, Sarah
Does Sarah Palin think she stands a chance to win this? I mean seriously, because once you star on a reality tv show, your career is pretty much over at that point. And I really hope that we as Alaskans dont have such a short memory to forget that the platform that she ran on to become governor was one of "put Alaska first, and, I will never give up on Alaska" (which is basically the same things she is running on this goaround) and as soon as John McCain called, she SPLIT, totally left Alaska....
Sarah’s just in to spoil it for nick at this point.
@@rnelson299 you could say the same thing for Nick. The fact the Republican Party allows this is beyond me.
Sarah has all the experience for this job. She's a person with values, knowledge and the personality
As our US Rep, Mary said she is working for all Alaskans. How about lowering our gas prices that are ruining our families?
Talk is cheap. She has made her DC swamp friends.
Gas prices are only a fraction of what is ruining the cost of living. Private healthcare, private education, and private housing.
Oh yeah, that button that people in Congress push and gas prices fall. Totally forgot about it.
She is a staunch climate change activist… gas is going to increase with her in office
@@bradleyjohnson3237 very good reasoning! Because it’s not like that gas prices largely rest on international trade, deals, and treaties or anything. It’s just one person in the Congress of United States with a prices dial in their purse. Very smart and educated voter you are.
Sarah go home
Go Sarah!!!!!
Sarah!!!❤
anyone but Begich. He lied to Don Young to try to replace him
Beigich and deathsantis are doing trump hands 🤣
But don't call it a cult. Oh, no no no!
I believe health and safety decisions need to be made based on facts from the experts.
The problem is that the “experts” throughput the pandemic lied and gaslighted the entire world..
I am glad to see Sarah Palin in politics. She has backbone and is a fighter for the people
@@-SM0KIE how is she not? She isnt a coward, she isnt like many corrupt lying Dems. Dems are the reason we are in this mess, and people who v ote blue are at fault to. They the ones who voted for them. So what is wrong with Sarah, the ones we need is women or men who are out spoken who get a little rough and tough its a dog fight, if your weak you dont show it by sitting there all weak. Dems are destroying us, we need fighters Sarah is a fighter. Dispite your lol like a donkey.
You need help.
ALASKA IS NOT JUST ABOUT OIL IT'S ABOUT GIVING ALL THE PEOPLE OF ALASKA THE RIGHT TO CONTROL THEIR RESOURCES NOT THE CORPORATIONS!
Peltola will win because Palin is throwing it for her
When Palin said said we take their equipment, licenses…. I almost thought she was talking about guns. Hypocrite
Palin still using the tired “ drill baby drill” …what will she use for her Christian Family Values platform now that she is divorced and her inlaws , The Palins endorsed Nick Begich?
Sarah Palin's the one who to VOTE For....
😂
Why do republicans allow there to be two Republican candidates? They should come together to win, otherwise they will lose again.
That's not how ranked choice voting works. ranked choice allows you to have multiple candidates without one being a spoiler.
Ranked choice voting
Love Sarah ❤
What's to love. She is an idiot.
Nobody with a functioning brain likes that clown.
Looks like the "good ol boys" have become the "good ol chicks" 🤭😏
Go Sarah Palin .
Begich 100%

Thank you
I hate this new voting. I am a super and I do not like the New voting. I did not vote for it!
Begich is the most credible. Bye next. Peltola is intelligent but she is living in a fantasy world. Palin is slogans with no intellectual depth.
It is extremely hard watching Peltola both lie and deny that her party is wrecking everything… she seemed almost embarrassed to admit that she is Democrat and that Biden is a Dem in charge..
@@bradleyjohnson3237 I mean she is telling the truth. People think Dems have a "lower inflation" button that they can press at any time and don't think supply chain issues and price gouging are things that are causing this crap.
I renamed Begich, bye Palin and distant rank Peltola. Yes Peltola is more intelligent than Palin but at least Palin isn’t a Marxist like Peltola.
@@rnelson299 Peltola isn't a marxist lol. You guys throw terms around like nobody's business

I simply think due to Nick getting much fewer votes then Sarah he should have dropped out. With these new voting rules I don’t think he could win and that also kills her chances. That makes him a spoiler.
@@bradleyjohnson3237 well said Mr johnson
HAHAHA SARAH HAS NO COMPETITION
Um did you actually watch the debate or did you rush to the all caps. She's got plenty of completion.
Sure she's great in front of a camera and she knows how to format talking points, but considering what's she's done (and not done) the last 13 years, I wouldn't trust her to actually do the job properly or for long
Sarah is the national candidate.
Nick is the Local candidate.
Rank the RED!
Vote Mary Peltola! 💙
why just because she a Democrat. And your a Democrat?
@@moontainbew5018 No because she is pro fish

Over 50% of inflation is directly attributed to corporate profits. Not one of these candidates is for the people.
Directly tied to Biden printing money. Educate yourself.
@@redcapnation5558 bro you just made some shit up and told me to educate myself. That's like sociopathic
@@benwalters4808 Made stuff up? We printed more money in the last 2 years than in the previous 80 years combined. Look it up. That's economics 101. More printed money = decrease in its value. Hence the inflation. It's not rocket science. This stuff is taught in HS.
@@redcapnation5558 you said biden did it, like it wasn't a whole damn federal reserve in charge of that. Check the price unit index over the last 4 years. Not 2, 4. These cocksucking corporations are taking us to the cleaners, units are getting smaller and prices are going up. Trickle down would imply that when trump gave them that tax break they'd give us a piece right? They fucking didn't cause trickle down ain't real and over the last 4 years record profits have continuously been reported. Tf biden got to do with it?

But Rs rank Rs only.
Don’t rank Peltola.
Don’t make mistake of not ranking Red
Nick Begich lied to Don Young and tried to trick him
@@threeblindchickens That’s bull crap, Don told nick he would only run one more time in 2020, and then decided to run for re-election in 2022. Nick had already told nick he had plans to run in the future, while Nick was cochairing Don Young’s 2020 campaign. By the way, thank goodness Nick decided to challenge Don Young to the right because Don young voted for a lot of Biden legislation his last year in office.

Why would anyone send a Democrat to Washington when they have not done 1 thing to help produce energy in Alaska. Democrats have done nothing but stop energy development, why support that? It’s republicans that have made the efforts to develop energy.
Nick is playing the 2 year game....hopping that Mary wins and is satisfied in running in another 2 years. He knows that Sarah’s base will not vote for him and is waiting for another chance. Sarah wins and he knows he can’t run against her and win in 2 years.

Chris bye doesn't have enough support to win an election. Yeah he would be a pretty good candidate but, if we want cheaper gas and lower inflation we have to unite under candidate that can compete with Mary. And according to the last election Sara Palin is the one who can do that. Begich and Bye seem to be good candidates but they can't compete in the general election.
So Peltola is clueless on energy.
