I Recieved a Phone call last night asking if I had submitted my absentee ballot,my answer was yes,I thought it was the State checking,the next question was did I vote for Lisa or Miller. I Found that to be strange,futher query, the girl said she was calling on behave of the Nat'l Rep. Comm.
Did anybody else using absentee ballot get such a call?

one of my issues with So many absentee ballots out there.
It is one way to Exit poll ... way early , and then "know" where to concentrate the campaign.
I know AK is way different than the other 49, But I think absentee ballots should Only be granted is one is going to out of state on Election day.
In 2010, we should be able to vote on-line. On the day of. Only. Results would be much more consistant too.

Since 1959 election results from Alaska have always been a mystery. The reason for the outcomes stay a mystery for the population of this State, why would this electron be any different?

Heard on the news today that the Republican "establishment" in DC and the 48 have sent a bunch of legal and other help up here for Murk. Shows who the RINO is. Should keep their azzes out of AK.

Could always mess with them. I never figured it was a serious flaw to mislead those who inquire where they don't belong.

A perfect response can be found on the Gunwriter's Forum: Super-liberal New York Times political reporter and columnist Tom Wicker told us that as a young reporter on the street he once asked an old lady outside a polling station whom she'd voted for.
"Oh, I never vote! That just encourages 'em."

I wonder how many absentee ballots Liiisa will find. Tuesday I heard 16K absentees. I read in the paper today there are 23K.
Over/under guesses as to the number on Tuesday?

It takes more time to register as an absentee. I would assume a more calculated vote. Therefore Lisa will gain 1/3 of absentee votes, with Miller getting the rest. My 2 cents
I fired off a letter to the RNC telling em to butt out.

Having just moved, I voted a question ballot (voting out of registration area). It should count this time - 'cuz the wife forgot to vote! I predict Lisa will win. I think a lot of those outstanding ballots are crossover votes by liberals not registered as D, figuring their guy hasn't a chance against Miller, whom they consider "scarey". And it's no one business how you voted. Not so sure this isn't a dirty Dem operative just trying to stir things up on the other side, either - or even an unofficial one.

Turns out it was a Democratic polling going on. Miller sure has made a lot of false accusations toward Lisa and the RNC. Bet he won't appologize. Will show a major lack of character on his part if he doesn't.

Actually the RNSC has sent two lawyers up here to help Murkowski. I don't care to have RINO's in DC trying to decide who represents the people of Alaska. They need to keep the he// out of here!
