Mark Begich, Joaquin Jackson, and Heller resistance... Three huge reasons to worry about the NRA.

Unbelievable. Over 11,200 people voted for Begich but failed to indicate a second choice. That is why Peltola won.
You may not be crazy about Palin but it is downright stupid to put a Biden-loving Dimocrat like Peltola in Congress over Palin.
Let's hope people learned their lesson, or figure it out before November.

Let's hope people learned their lesson, or figure it out before November. It doesn’t help yo girl Palin telling everyone just vote for her. I said this another post what you think that tells Begich voters?? Well you see it 11k didn’t rank anyone else. Yo girl Palin better un ph uck herself real quick and start appealing to the Begich voters to rank her 2. She also needs to stop running her mouth telling people to just vote for her and to rank the red. But I have come to the conclusion that Palin is just too damn dumb to realize that…

Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Seems like if they used their damn heads to get more votes, so the dems wouldn't get in, would be a better game plan...

I predict we are stuck with a Dem for years to come unless RCV is overturned. At this point, both Palin and Begich are too stubborn for one of them to bow out gracefully for the good of AK.

Seems like if they used their damn heads to get more votes, so the dems wouldn't get in, would be a better game plan... Yes it would but under our new system thanks to Scott Kendal (democrat turd) we have RCV (rank choice voting) which creates a jungle primary so every swinging turd pays $50 buck to get in on the primary ballot. We had a guy that goes by Santa Clause on the ballot. Anyhow after the the election the top 4 vote getters head into the general election. For this special election it was a perfect storm initially we had 2 democrats and 2 republicans for the special election. But the democrats conveniently found some dirt on the 1 democrat Dr. Al Gross and he dropped out of the race and disappeared. This special election we had was just to finish out the last few months of Don Young term. The General election in November is for the full 2 year term. As Hudge said neither Palin or Begich will not drop out. Meanwhile ol Gal from Bethel, taking a page out of Joe Biden campaign. Disappeared and did very little. Meanwhile Palin and Begich are out destroying each other. Those 2 need to get on the same sheet of paper and start targeting Peltola and tie everything the Biden administration is doing to her. She made a comment this summer pretty much ANWR is lost people in Alaska were like WHAT??? Ol Mary Peltola disappeared for a few weeks. All they are doing is running folksy ads for her now making it sound like she's just a grandma from Bethel that only cares about Alaska interest. Uh ok..

We cannot do anything about RCV right now so there is no need to whine about it. What we can do is convince dumb people to quit getting played by it.
Sixty percent voted for either Palin or Begich. All we needed to do was for everyone who voted for either to pick the other one as their second choice and Peltola would have lost.
How hard is that?

Well, why didn't he drop out? He is clearly not going to improve his distant-third-place standing the next go 'round, so why play "Ross Perot," split the R vote and push a Biden-loving Dimocrat into Congress?
If he really cared about Alaska he would have dropped out. Had he done that, I would have been far more likely to support him in the future. As it is he appears to be just another self-absorbed "hurray for me and screw everybody else" politician willing to see the state get hurt to further his own low-probability chance of success.
But as I said, he would not be splitting the vote if only his supporters were not so selfish and stupid. Begich got just under 54,000 votes, and almost exactly half put Palin down as their second choice.
The other 27,000 were either "exhausted" because there was no second choice made, or they put Peltola down as their second choice.
For so-called conservatives to think we are better off with Peltola than Palin is just mind-blowing. I don't know how a sane person reaches such a conclusion.

There have been projections (fwiw) that show Palin head to head losing, but Begich head to head winning.
But marking them 1 and 2 should be caveman easy. As well as not voting for a D at all.

Yeah meanwhile yo girl running her mouth disenfranchising begich voters. Good job Sarah, she is hot trash.. it pained me to rank her 2 but I did what was supposed to do. But to those 27k voters she is a idiot their is no convincing them otherwise. She needs to somehow appeal to those voters. But again my pillow is smarter than her..

I’ll still give her the deuce. Still beats a democrat.
Plus, if we get rid of the jungle primary and RCV, someone will primary her into retirement in just 2 years.
