33% so far… I’m disappointed in the electorate.

Third and fourth do not add up to second and second is half of first... looking grim for the Ds...

But, with 54% of expected vote counted little has changed. 64% have voted for someone with an R.

Lucky you🙂
Hit the opener here yesterday and picked up 21 bows. Black sculpin and green bodied muddled with a peacock primary rather than turkey. Largest was 27" with most in the16 to 20" class. Water was dead clear yet up.
Best, M

No sir. The 'Big' show, meaning regular elections, not for Unkle Dons.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (KTUU) - Election results remain largely similar to the initial standings from Saturday as the Alaska Division of Elections released the most recent batch of ballot counts Wednesday.
Republican former Gov. Sarah Palin remains atop the leaderboard with a cushion of nearly 12,000 votes over fellow Republican Nick Begich III. Nonpartisan candidate Al Gross and Democrat Mary Peltola remain in the third and fourth place spots — respectively — with a substantial lead over the trailing candidates ahead of the Aug. 16 Special General election to fill the remainder of the term for the late Rep. Don Young in Congress.
Election Results Palin’s lead shrunk as her total ballot count continues to grow. The former Vice Presidential candidate now has 37,558 votes which account for 28.30% of all ballots cast — dropping slightly from the 30% of total ballots that she had received at the last tally. Begich received nearly 4,000 additional votes — now totaling 25,625 — increasing his percentage only marginally.
Gross received over 3,000 additional ballots and now has 16,921 total. Peltola also added over 3,000 additional votes and has now received 8.71% of ballots, extending her lead over fifth-place candidate Republican Tara Sweeney. The Division of Elections has now tallied 133,022 ballots.
ALASKA is a "HARD COUNTRY for OLDMEN". (But if you live it wide'ass open, balls'to the wall, the pedal floored, full throttle, it is a delightful place, to finally just sit-back and savor those memories while sipping Tequila).

In case anyone was wondering, when I posted this thread it was meant to say “the liberal K H U N T”. Meaning the liberal Palin. I was hoping we heard the last from that liberal bitch 14 years ago.

Good stuff, thanks for clarifying.
I think Sarah gets a raw deal in the press, as she's an easy target. And Americans are really dumb. (sorry guys)
All that said as i try to remember her career, it is tough to forget the scandals, lies, tax increases, scandals, etc. I mostly blame McCain for casting her (and us) into the spotlight and bringing the [bleep] of US politics to AK. . Which I guess is a long way of saying... I agree.
I think Sarah will do better under the structure of a party system where she never is allowed to think for herself. And if that's the nicest thing I can say for you, you should be concerned.

Interesting will be to see how the 30% that went elsewhere than the top 4 will go next time around. Most will go to the two Liberals (Gross and 9 %) I'd guess.
Begich better get his game face on and do some heavy advertising. He has name recognition to overcome - two ways - his and hers.
And then there are the two thirds of RVs that didn't vote.
I also wonder how many cross-over votes helped put Palin in the lead hoping for an easy opponent. She's going to get hammered by the left.
