Democrat Mary Peltola defeats Sarah Palin in Alaska special election

Summary by Ground News
Democrat Mary Peltola on Wednesday won the special election to represent Alaska's lone U.S. House seat. Peltola will be the first Alaska Native person to serve in Congress. Peltola's victory is a major upset in a state that voted for former President Trump by 10 points in 2020, and it makes her the first Native Alaskan elected to Congress. She defeated Republican Sarah Palin, the former governor and 2008 vice presidential nominee who had Trump's endorsement. Palin said she felt more fired up than ever. She also questioned election integrity and again criticized the state's new ranked choice voting system.
