If Murkowski gets bullied too much I could see her saying "Screw you guys, I'm now an Independent!". Good luck beating her in a ranked choice election.

The truth is, on a personal level, Murkowski is 67 years old. While she may have more left in her career should she continue running, if she doesn't run again or loses, she can enjoy her retirement. She is well off financially and she can either work at something she loves or travel the world while still young enough.
I was in Alaska on vacation during election week and I thought the measure to repeal had won. So happy to hear that it ended up losing. I wonder if that helped buttress Murkowski's stance in this.
