Yep- and it was done illegally, and with a lie to try to insure Murkowski (RINO) stays in office. Her former campaign manager (IIRC) led the charge. By law, ballot initiatives cannot contain more than one subject. This one did:

1. Ranked voting
2. Make sources of "dark money" campaign donations public. (It didn't)

3. Included the open “jungle” primary.


Then it was heavily publicized on the dark money issue, ignoring the more onerous threat. Uninformed (nice word for ignorant) voters bit.

And there we have it - screwed, blowed and tatooded. A crooked judge ruled it legal. (I say crooked, but what else could he be in the obvious face of illegality?)

Welcome to the dark side.

Added#3. State supremes said “naw, it’s all good man”.
