Pro-Trump challenger's residency issues catch Murkowksi's eye
CNN
Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski has not yet said whether she'll run for reelection in 2022 — but she is well aware of potential baggage one of her challengers could be carrying.
Murkowski took aim at her would-be GOP challenger, Kelly Tshibaka, over the candidate's ties to Alaska in an interview with CNN, an opening salvo in what could emerge as the most high-profile proxy war between Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell and former President Donald Trump in next year's midterms.
Murkowski alluded to a state investigation into whether Tshibaka illegally obtained a fishing license for a sportfishing event in 2019 because she had not lived in the state for the previous 12 months.
