The clock is ticking.

The midterms are coming and this is Clay in Bucks.

Countdown to Election Day podcast candidates coverage at analysis.

You won't hear anywhere else.

Bring him you you until each week.

Let's go.

Kelly Shibaka.

She is the Republican candidate in the Alaska Senate race.

She is trying to replace Lisa Murkowski despite the fact that Mitch McConnell is spending millions

of dollars against her and I just want to start right there because I think this is such

an important part of this story Kelly and thanks for joining us.

How much money has the head of the Senate Republican party effectively spent to try to

keep you from being elected in favor of Lisa Murkowski who wasn't even willing to vote

for Brett Kavanaugh to be on the Supreme Court?

Great question.

It was always wonderful to be with you.

Thank you for having me.

We pledged up to $9 million.

To give you a grasp of this that's more money spent in dark money in our state than both

Murkowski and I have spent combined in our elections.

When he pledged that money she said, Mitch you have always been there for me.

I will be there for you.
