Anchorage, Alaska (KINY) – Governor Mike Dunleavy has announced his endorsement of current Lt. Governor Nancy Dahlstrom in her run for Congress.
In a statement, Governor Dunleavy said, “It’s my pleasure to express my support for Nancy in her congressional campaign. Nancy’s exceptional commitment and conservative values resonate with our state and we’ve achieved much for Alaska together. I’m confident Nancy will stand up against federal overreach in Congress and safeguard Alaskan values. Her candidacy represents my preferred choice to advance our state’s interests.”
Governor Dunleavy first appointed Nancy Dahlstrom to serve as the Commissioner of the Department of Corrections, after her time in the state legislature, where she focused on improving public safety for Alaska. In 2022, Dahlstrom joined Dunleavy’s reelection campaign as the candidate for Lt. Governor and the ticket won on the first ballot with over 50% of the vote.
