Donald Trump ally and former governor Sarah Palin is hoping to spark a political comeback in the Republican Party’s Alaskan elections.

The 58-year-old 2008 vice presidential nominee is on the ballot twice in the primary, running in a special election to replace the former governor, who died in March, and another for a full two-year House of Representatives term.
