Assuming Peltola loses, anyone wanna tank a guess what her future will be? I highly doubt she just straight up retires and fades into obscurity. She's young and still very popular and odds are better than good that 2026 will be a great year for Democrats. It's just a question of whether she chooses to run for senate, governor or her house seat once more. There's also the question of which other Democrats in Alaska may run at that time.

I think she’ll run next time. I would guess for the House because it’ll be an easier race. Unless Sullivan retires

Nothing to lose to run against Sullivan in 2026.

Yep if it's a strong blue year that race is winnable.

Who's easier to beat, Begich or Sullivan? That will be the biggest question on her mind for 2026.

Begich I would assume because she would also get Murkowskis endorsement. But an entrenched Republican in Alaska is hard to dislodge in either case.
