The Republican suffers her second loss in three months to Mary Peltola, the first Alaskan Native elected to Congress.

Former US vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin is projected to have again lost her bid for a political comeback after this month's midterm elections.

The Alaska races took two weeks to be called because the state uses a new ranked-choice voting system.Democrat Mary Peltola and Sarah Palin are friendly from their time serving in the statehouse Senator Murkowski - an incumbent moderate Republican who voted to impeach Mr Trump for incitement of insurrection after last year's US Capitol riot - has also cruised to re-election.With almost all votes counted, she has beaten Trump-endorsed intra-party challenger Kelly Tshibaka by more than seven points, CBS projects.

Ms Peltola, who is Yup'ik and grew up in a rural part of Alaska, campaigned for abortion access, climate action and the state's salmon populations. The former self-described hockey mom was the vice-presidential running mate in 2008 to Arizona Senator John McCain, who lost to Barack Obama.
