ANCHORAGE, Alaska, April 2 (UPI) -- The Alaska Republican Party said U.S. Sen. Mark Begich should resign so former Sen. Ted Stevens can have a chance to win back his seat in a special election.
In a statement posted on its Web site, the Alaska GOP said the "only reason" Begich -- the former Anchorage mayor -- won his Senate seat in November is because some voters believed Stevens was corrupt.
