Idk the source of these numbers but if they're true, then Peltola may honestly be a slight favorite:

If Peltola wins how would it impact the race in November?  Would she be favored to win again, or would the race be easier to win for the GOP if Begich potentially drops out?

Begich dropping out may, in all honesty, make it easier for an incumbent Peltola to win 1-on-1 against Palin on the same day that Dems/Indies/moderate Repubs/Natives unite to save Lisa Murkowski's career. The smartest move for the AKGOP would be Palin withdrawing & endorsing Begich for the simple reason that he'd clearly clobber Peltola in a 1-on-1. Ofc, this strategy would inherently be entirely dependent on Palin's cooperation, which can't be assumed because she hates Begich. If everybody stays in, then I'm curious to see how much an inc. Peltola gains & how much Palin support switches to Begich.

I literally don't remember the last time that the election predictions were this wrong:

My god, she may just do it. She may just keep the seat in Peltola's hands.

Do we think Murkowski was Begich>Peltola>Palin? That's my guess at least. Possible she rated Palin second out of partisan loyalty

Peltola literally helped run her 2010 write-in campaign, so read into that what may be read.
