AK-GOV: Walker (I) Drops Out

[new_patomic]

The 2-way polling we've had has showed Dunleavy ahead of Begich.

This makes things more interesting, but this seems too late to really affect things.

I would say this deserves a return to the tossup catergory until we get new polling.

Lean-R or Likely-R

Those are theoretical though. People will likely act differently now that Dunleavy v. Begich is a real thing rather than a theoretical.

Considering that Walker's name will still be on the ballot I wouldn't presume Begich is favored here. But we'll see, it obviously needs to be repolled.
