The Alaska Democratic Party has released this statement on Sarah Palin’s resignation:
“Alaskans are dismayed yet not surprised that Governor Palin is abandoning her obligations to our great state. Sarah Palin’s decision to step down as governor is a shock to Alaskans, coming at a time when leadership is needed secure a gas pipeline and address rising unemployment. Palin’s lack of commitment to her sworn obligation to serve her term to the best of her ability is a betrayal to all Alaskans,” said Patti Higgins, Chair of the Alaska Democratic Party.
