Bill’s passion for Alaska and his desire to see Alaskans prosper is one of the first things that drew me to him 33 years ago. Maybe it was being the son of Alaskan pioneers, living a rugged rural existence through statehood, his family’s loss of all material things in the 1964 earthquake and regaining all that was lost in the boom of the pipeline construction that fueled Bill’s drive to see Alaska become all she can be. I soon realized that it was the Walker family’s story of courage, tenacity and true grit that made Bill the kind of guy who would be selected to serve his city as mayor at the age of 27. These are the same qualities, along with vast experience, qualifications and knowledge, that uniquely equip Bill to be the governor Alaska needs here and now.

Bill is in it to win it and as the campaign heats up, the expenses mount daily. We do need your help. Please make a donation today. Click here to make an online donation or mail a check to 731 N St., Anchorage 99501. Contributions cannot exceed $500 per individual ($1000 per couple) per year.

We have less than 50 days to go until the primary election on August 24th and Bill is blazing the campaign trail and daily picking up steam. He has received the endorsement that was given to Senator Ted Stevens and Congressman Don Young for many years. Bill has also earned the endorsement of many Alaskan leaders including former Attorney General Charlie Cole, former Lieutenant Governor Stephen McAlpine and others that will be announced in coming days. A massive grassroots effort is underway. Over 300 volunteers around the state represented Bill in at least eight July 4th parades and celebrations. Volunteers have also wall-papered the state with Bill Walker signs. And in a recent online poll conducted by the Alaska Republican Party, Bill led the poll 2 to 1 against the other Republican candidates.

But we cannot do it alone. Every dollar that you can contribute is much appreciated.

As you head to the polls on August 24, I would simply say that if you are looking for a leader who possesses great wisdom, dogged determination and a love and loyalty for all things Alaskan; if you are looking for a statesman, an independent voice for Alaska who will guard Alaska’s interests and do everything in his power to assure that we have a robust economy and low cost energy for decades to come, Bill Walker is the man who deserves your vote as the next governor of the Great 49th State.

Blessings!

Donna Walker
