前阿拉斯加州长萨拉·佩林宣布竞选国会议员

2022-04-02 14:06  ABC   - 

前共和党副总统候选人和阿拉斯加州州长萨拉·佩林将竞选已故众议员唐·杨空出的阿拉斯加网络普通用户国会席位宣布的周五在她的脸书主页上。

佩林写道:“今天,我宣布代表阿拉斯加竞选美国众议院席位。”。“公共服务是一种召唤,我将很荣幸在国会代表阿拉斯加的男男女女,就像众议员杨49年来所做的那样。”

年纪轻的死亡3月18日,88岁的她在飞往西雅图返回阿拉斯加的途中失去知觉。作为任职时间最长的代表,他是“众议院院长”。

阿拉斯加选举部门的公共关系经理蒂芙尼·蒙特马约尔向美国广播公司证实,佩林已经申请参加周五下午的竞选。提交申请的截止时间是周五下午5点。初选将于6月11日举行,特别选举将于8月16日举行。

58岁的佩林于2009年辞去州长职务,但帮助将共和党政治的民粹主义倾向纳入主流,后来被前总统唐纳德·特朗普接受。

“美国正处于一个转折点。佩林写道:“当我看到极左势力摧毁这个国家时,我知道我必须站出来加入这场战斗。“伟大的阿拉斯加州的人民,像全国各地的其他人一样,正在与失控的通货膨胀、空货架和世界上最高的油价作斗争。”

她继续说,“我们需要这个国家的能源安全,阿拉斯加可以帮助提供这一点——但前提是联邦政府不要碍事,让自由市场做它最擅长的事情。”

当已故参议员约翰·麦凯恩在2008年竞选总统失败时,她出人意料地成为他的竞选伙伴。

佩林在卸任州长后的13年里一直留在公众的视线中,尽管从那以后她没有参加过竞选。她出版了两本书《变得无赖》和《用心看美国》,多年来一直是福克斯新闻频道的政治评论员,并主演了TLC真人秀系列节目《萨拉·佩林的阿拉斯加》她也是2020年福克斯电视台“假面歌手”的参赛者。

她上个月上了新闻,当时纽约的一名法官驳回诽谤诉讼她在2017年对《纽约时报》提起诉讼,称该报发表了一篇错误的社论,故意毁了她作为政治评论员和顾问的蓬勃发展的职业生涯。法官说她没有代表报纸证明“实际的恶意”。他允许陪审团做出裁决,但他们也做出了有利于报纸的裁决。

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin announces campaign for Congress

Former GOP vice president candidate and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will run for Alaska’s at-large Congress seat vacated by the late Rep. Don Young, sheannouncedon her Facebook page Friday.

"Today I’m announcing my candidacy for the U.S. House seat representing Alaska," Palin wrote. "Public service is a calling, and I would be honored to represent the men and women of Alaska in Congress, just as Rep. Young did for 49 years."

Youngdiedon March 18 at 88 years old after losing consciousness on a flight to Seattle returning home to Alaska. He was the "dean of the House" as the longest-serving representative.

Tiffany Montemayor, public relations manager at the Alaska Division of Elections, confirmed to ABC News that Palin had filed to run on Friday afternoon. The deadline to file was 5 p.m. Friday. The primary will be held June 11 with the special election Aug. 16.

Palin, 58, resigned as governor in 2009, but helped mainstream the populist strain of GOP politics later embraced by former President Donald Trump.

"America is at a tipping point. As I’ve watched the far left destroy the country, I knew I had to step up and join the fight," Palin wrote. "The people of the great State of Alaska, like others all over the country, are struggling with out-of-control inflation, empty shelves, and gas prices that are among the highest in the world."

She continued, "We need energy security for this country, and Alaska can help provide that -- but only if the federal government gets out of the way and lets the free market do what it does best."

She was a surprise choice as running mate for the late Sen. John McCain when he ran unsuccessfully for president in 2008.

Palin has stayed in the public eye in the 13 years since she stepped down as governor though she hasn't run for office since then. She released two books, "Going Rogue" and "America by Heart," appeared for years as a political commentator on Fox News and starred on the TLC reality series "Sarah Palin's Alaska." She was also a contestant on Fox's "The Masked Singer" in 2020.

She was in the news last month when a judge in New Yorktossed a libel lawsuitshe had filed against The New York Times in 2017 saying the newspaper deliberately ruined her burgeoning career as a political commentator and consultant by publishing an erroneous editorial. The judge said she had not proven "actual malice" on behalf of the paper. He allowed the jury to still reach a verdict, but they also ruled in favor of the newspaper.
