On Abortion: Let Alaskans vote whether or not abortion is protected right

[On abortion rights]: "I like many Alaskans, am pro life," Dunleavy said in a news release. "I also recognize that many Alaskans are pro choice. I will therefore be introducing a resolution for a proposed constitutional amendment to the Legislature in the next session to answer the question whether abortion shall, or not be a constitutionally protected right."

On Government Reform: Ranked-choice voting interjects a little bit of uncertainty

Dunleavy and Dahlstrom were asked about their thoughts on ranked-choice voting. "We've got to make sure that when people vote they walk away from that voting booth and they believe that, in fact, their vote does matter, does count, and will be calculated, tabulated, counted ... and apply to the individual or the issue that they intended to vote for. Certainly this new system interjects a little bit of uncertainty for a number of Alaskans."

On Principles & Values: Supreme Court should decide 2020 election, but accepts Biden

Dunleavy supported the Texas lawsuit that tried in December 2020 to get the Supreme Court to overturn Biden's victories in four states. When asked in December 2020--a month after television networks unofficially declared Biden the winner--how he would manage Alaska's relationship with "President-elect Biden," Dunleavy said that "I'm not there yet, that there's a new president." He added that there was an "outside chance" that there would be a Biden administration--though, in fact, that was overwhelmingly likely.

"If there is any suspicion of fraud, which there is, that really needs to be looked into. That really needs to be investigated," Dunleavy said, though there was no evidence at the time of widespread fraud that could have changed the outcome. "That really needs to be determined, I think by the courts, that if it does exist, then it needs to be rectified. If it doesn't exist, then that needs to be proven as well."
