Is there a good link for congressional results. All nationally red vs. blue...??


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).

Looks like Baggage did what he came here to do, split the vote to guarantee Peltola gets the win

No looks like drama queen Palin doing what she was sent here to do. Split the vote, I can’t believe 50k retards voted for her..

Did Murkowski win or lose? Can't tell from the news.

Alaska's voting is stupid. There should be one from each party. More simple. At least in Alabama, and many other states, you have a runoff if no one gets 50% of the top two.

I noticed where two Republicans split over 50% of the vote and a Dem got about 48%. Then there was a Libertarian.

They wait until the total count is done before looking at second choice votes... it will tale a while.

Pelota will be beat if the red was ranked.

Not going to happen, I'm afraid. Begich has to edge out Palin for the win. Palin has earned the negative vote of a lot of us. She would lose in a straight heads-up with Peltola. Begich would win against her...

It all comes down to how Begich voters ranked. He had consistently come in 3rd.

If Begich voters ranked Palin 2nd, then Palin wins.

If they didn’t rank anyone second, they wasted their vote.

If they ranked Peltola 2nd, they voted for Peltola.

3rd place Begich voters get to decide this.

Kelly did well. Hopefully she outs the witch.

The democrat got 20k votes. If half ranked Lisa 2nd it’s not looking good for Kelly.

And they already did in the special election. A huge chunk pf Begich voters did not rank Palin. The polls have consistently shown high disapproval for Palin. She cannot win.

Begich on the other hand would win in a head to head with Peltola.

RCV is not the cause of losing this one. Palin beat Begich last time in the special and the primary for this race which happened on the same day. Enough people understanding was required to get Palin in 3rd...

I've been a Trump guy since he won the nomination in 2016 but the candidates he backed did not do well and it's once again rearing it's ugly head here in Ak. All we can hope for now is that the Begich voters (of which my wife and I are) ranked Palin 2nd like we did. As for the senate, I hope Kelly can hold onto her lead, it's time the Murkowskis of the world disappeared from Alaskan politics.


That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.
