Republican Tara Sweeney is dropping out of the U.S. House election, after garnering around 3.7% of votes counted so far in the primary race.
U.S. House candidate Tara Sweeney wave to motorists in Midtown Anchorage on Election Day, Tuesday, Aug. 16, 2022.
“Looking at the outcome of the regular primary election, I don’t see a path to victory, nor to raise the resources needed to be successful this November,” she said in a written statement. Sweeney had raised nearly $300,000 since announcing her candidacy last spring. A separate political action committee supporting Sweeney raised over $600,000.
Sweeney ran on a pro-development, socially moderate platform, saying she supports abortion access. The issue set her apart from the other Republicans on the ballot. In her statement Tuesday, Sweeney said she “ran a campaign focused on the issues, not partisan rhetoric.” “We must ensure the best representation possible is in place as Alaska’s only voice in the House of Representatives. I look forward to working with a true Alaskan willing to carry forward the legacy of Don Young while serving in Congress,” Sweeney said in her statement.
