Primary election
Von Imhof, a former Anchorage School Board member, raised $150,000 before the primary election and outspent both of her opponents.[6] She focused her campaign on the budget deficit and on not cutting the Alaska Permanent Fund Division (PFD).[7] 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."[7]

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
