Sorry, but this is bs. It’s not nearly over until November, and the Alaska abomination is NOT indicative of what’s coming.

Rank choice voting guarantees voter fraud.

I heard that 60 per cent of the whole election had voters voting REPUBLICAN.
I think that means, in the whack job system in Alaska, Palin stands a good chance of winning in November, after all if she only gets 51 percent of the vote, Palin wins.

It isn’t just rank choice voting, it is RHINOs who would rather see a Dem in office than a MAGA. That was Beich (?) whole purpose as the second Repub in the race, to divide the Repub vote — and it worked.

Republicans got 70% of the vote in the first round of that "ranked-choice" special election that I still can't make heads or tails of. If the Republicans got behind one candidate instead of having two splitting the vote between them, the second round would likely have been moot. On top of that, many voters of the establishment GOP candidate chose the Democrat as their second choice, rather than have their second choice go to Palin.

It sucks but they have a chance to get their act together for the November mid-terms and win the seat back.

The "ranked-choice" ballot or whatever they call it seems kind of sketchy to me.

This whole article is BS.

Rank choice voting is the problem.

Here in Maine’s Second Congressional District in 2018, Republican incumbent Bruce Poliquin lost because of rank choice voting, even though he received 2,200 votes MORE than his democrap challenger, Jared Golden.

To avoid RCV from kicking in, a candidate must receive 50% of the vote plus just one additional vote.

Bruce Poliquin is running again this November.

The Ranked Choice voter rules favor Rats and RINOS.

Strong Democrat performance in Nebraska, Minnesota, upstate NY, and now Alaska.

No evidence of a red wave coming.

What it tells us is that ranked choice voting is a farce

It doesn’t tell you Shiite.

Mary can go to Congress for two months and Gov. Sarah Palin will swamp her vote totals in November...

BS..., all we learned from the Alaska election was that their ranked voting guarantees one party loses when it has 2 candidates in the top three to split the vote!

Republican a-holes predictably splitting the vote — the reason we lost the GA Senate seat.

They moved to ranked choice voting, which as far as I’m concerned isn’t democratic at all. It can ensure a permanent Democrat rule.

To get the desired desired under an RCV system requires that voters are educated on how to vote. Without doing some research it seems to me that if voters had voted for Palin, only Palin with no secondary selections, she would have won. The state cannot throw out ballots with only one choice because that will bring lawsuits charging voter suppression.

It proves the fallacy that is ranked choice voting, at minimum.

After her 2008 vice-presidential campaign flopped...

It's pretty hard to win as a running mate when the head of the ticket throws the election. Remember McCain said we had nothing to fear from an Obama presidency. He gave it away then and there.

Hopefully we won’t have idiots tell conservative voters to not vote like in January 2021.
