The document signed by Alaska Republican Party Chairman Glenn Clary was provided by the party to The Washington Times. The resolution also said the party would “recruit a Republican primary challenger to oppose and prohibit Senator Murkowski from being a candidate in any Republican primary to the extent legally permissible.” Kris Warren, a party district chairman, said that the party was seeking a candidate “who will be more in line with the Republican philosophy.” “The party has been upset with Sen. Murkowski for quite some time,” Mr. Warren told the Anchorage Daily News. “And we’ve actually considered a similar resolution in the past. But I think what’s happened here in the last few months is kind of the last straw. We felt that we had to make a strong statement.”
