Candidates Charlie Pierce, Les Gara, Bill Walker and Gov. Mike Dunleavy squared off last night in the gubernatorial Debate for the State, produced by AKNewsNow, KTOOpubmedia and Alaska Public Media.
Incumbent Republican Gov. Mike Dunleavy bore many attacks from two of his three challengers. In his closing remarks, Dunleavy argued that Alaska is better off today than it was four years ago.
Democrat Les Gara directly contradicted many of Dunleavy’s assertions and painted a dire picture of Alaska. Gara said high oil revenue driven by the war in Ukraine made this year’s historically high Permanent Fund dividend possible, not the governor. Dunleavy and fellow Republican Charlie Pierce used some of their time highlighting former Gov. Bill Walker’s use of the veto to slash PFDs in 2016.
