GOP Super PAC Rushes to Save Don Young

A super PAC aligned with House Republican leadership is mounting a surprise final-weekend effort to save Rep. Don Young (R-AK) from defeat on Tuesday, Politico reports.

“The move underscores just how far Republicans are being pressed to defend red turf. Young has held his at-large seat since 1973, and President Trump won Alaska in 2016 by nearly 15 percentage points. But this week, a poll showed Young leading his Democratic opponent, public education advocate Alyse Galvin, by a single point.”
