KREISS-TOMKINS RAISES $1,000,000 FASTER THAN ANY ALASKA GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE IN HISTORY
Less than 50 days after launching his campaign, JKT continues to outpace the field
SITKA, ALASKA — Just over one month after launching his campaign for Alaska Governor, Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins announced today he has raised over $1,000,000, the fastest any gubernatorial candidate in Alaska history has reached the milestone, excluding self-funding.
“Alaskans want a problem solver in the governor’s office, and the response to our campaign shows just how hungry Alaskans are for positive change,” shared Kreiss-Tomkins. “Alaska has been stuck in a cycle of managed decline for too long under Governor Dunleavy — schools closing, costs rising, young people leaving. This campaign is about turning that around, and I’m so proud to see the surge in support behind us. Alaskans are ready for a government that works again and a new generation ready to build a better Alaska.”
Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins has spent his career fighting for rural communities and making the state work for Alaska’s working families. During his decade in the legislature, he earned the respect and trust of Democrats, Republicans, and independents, putting governance over politics in order to solve problems.
The historic milestone underscores the early momentum behind Kreiss-Tomkins’ campaign and signals the appetite for a new generation of leadership in Alaska. With a broad coalition of supporters and a rapidly expanding base of support, the campaign is building the infrastructure to compete statewide and carry JKT’s message to every corner of Alaska.
“We’re taking this campaign to every corner of Alaska, from Southeast to the Interior to the Y-K Delta,” Kreiss-Tomkins said. “Alaskans know we’re at a crossroads, and they’re ready for a governor who can work with the legislature to solve Alaska’s big problems for the generations to come.”
