Begich Drops Out to Back Kreiss-Tomkins | Anchorage News

Tom Begich has dropped out of the Alaska gubernatorial race, joining his running mate Julia Hnilicka in endorsing fellow Democrat Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins. Begich, who entered the race a year ago to push for better education funding and stronger communication between state branches, built a statewide coalition focused on energy, youth opportunity, and fair resource revenue. Though their ticket garnered over 34,000 votes—21% of the total—their decision to unite behind Kreiss-Tomkins stems from financial realities and a shared vision for Alaska’s future. With over $1.3 million raised from Alaskans, they believe consolidating support will maximize impact. Their campaign may be ending, but their mission—to bridge divides and drive meaningful change—continues.
