Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy will run for re-election in 2022
Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy will run for re-election in 2022 with Lt. Gov. Kevin Meyer, he said Friday.
His campaign submitted a letter of intent with state regulators allowing him to begin fundraising for the 2022 election, and the governor said in an interview Friday that he sees “tremendous opportunity and upside for Alaska” in the next few years.
“I’m excited to put in another four years,” he said. “I think I’ve demonstrated some pretty positive leadership when Alaska has been dealt one of the toughest blows in its history with this virus and the economic fallout.”
Dunleavy has not officially filed with the Alaska Division of Elections. The deadline to do so is June 1, and most candidates begin raising money months before officially registering.
