Joe Miller

Republican Joe Miller, a Fairbanks attorney, has served as a magistrate and judge. The West Point graduate was awarded a Bronze Star in the Persian Gulf War. Endorsements from former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and the California-based Tea Party Express helped him score a come-from-behind primary victory over GOP establishment-backed incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who got back into the race as a write-in candidate.
