Primary election
Von Imhof, a former Anchorage School Board member, raised $150,000 before the primary election and outspent both of her opponents.[5] She focused her campaign on the budget deficit and on not cutting the Alaska Permanent Fund Division (PFD).[6] GOP spokesperson Suzanne Downing said that she was not surprised that Von Imhof defeated state Rep. Johnson because of the money she raised. "She had a lot of money. She raised a lot money. He came in quite late. He had about 60 days to run his race. He didn’t raise a lot of money. He raised his own money. He paid for it himself."[6]

2012
Landfield's campaign website listed the following issues:[9]
- Resource development
- Excerpt: "Alaska's current policies are preventing responsible development and job growth. The existing policies create wealth for the government but do little for ordinary Alaskans. We need new policies that encourage investment and create jobs."
- Limited government
- Excerpt: "Government should not be given a blank check. Our government is funded almost entirely by oil revenues, which have gone up dramatically in recent years. Ordinary Alaskans aren't getting any more from their government, but whether we realize it or not, we are paying a lot more. Government needs to be restrained so Alaskan's get their money's worth."
- Education
- Excerpt: "Education is the key to our future. We need to ensure that our kids are getting a quality education and are equipped to be productive members of society. Simply throwing money at it does not guarantee a positive result."
- Energy
- Excerpt: "There is no shortage of viable energy in Alaska. We have an abundance of oil, gas and coal. There is no reason we should not be using these resources to power our state other than the state or federal government getting in the way."
