Donald Trump Vows to Campaign in Alaska Against Lisa Murkowski; Where Murkowski Is in Polls
By Breitbart. Former President Donald Trump said Saturday he would campaign against Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) in 2022 when she is due for reelection.
“I will not be endorsing, under any circumstances, the failed candidate from the great State of Alaska, Lisa Murkowski,” Trump said in a statement Politico first reported.
“She represents her state badly and her country even worse. I do not know where other people will be next year, but I know where I will be — in Alaska campaigning against a disloyal and very bad Senator,” Trump continued.
Trump also pledged to campaign against Murkowski in a series of tweets in June 2020.
Murkowski was one of seven GOP senators who voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial in January and is the only one going up against voters next year. (Read more from “Donald Trump Vows to Campaign in Alaska Against Lisa Murkowski” HERE)

She is most popular among Millennials and Generation X, and is more popular among men than women.
