Glaring omission in Charles' column on the Primary:  Eagle River incumbent Lora Reinbold's (R) win over Crystal Kennedy (R). This was an all-out, brutal campaign with Reinbold outgunned by Kennedy's money, time on the campaign, attack ads, and powerful Republican leaders' endorsements. That included a scathing personal attack on Reinbold's character and effectiveness from former Eagle River Senator, Fred Dyson. Despite all the impressive campaign artillery and harsh criticism heaped on her, Reinbold won the election because she consistently rejected the Governor's plan and a raid on the PFD and Fund without Alaskans' approval. She was rewarded for that by the voters who don't believe Legislators are putting enough effort into downsizing government and safeguarding the Fund and PFD. Surely, the Governor and Legislator's took note of Lora Reinbold's win that shows many strongly reject restructuring the PFD/Fund and government needs to be restructured in 2017.
