“If you voted absentee, did you have any way to vote for Murkowski?”
I think you could write Murk in, but check this out:

“This is going to sound crazy, but I’d like to hear from someone in the military who voted in Alaska to see what the ballot looked like. My brother, stationed last in Alaska, but now serving in Iraq, voted by Alaska military ballot. He told me he voted for Murkowski. When I joked about spelling her name right, he said that he didn’t have to write it out at all. He said it was printed on the ballot. I asked questions every which way to make sure he knew what he was talking about - that it was the general election and not the primary, etc. He was sure. He’s a doctor in the army medical corps, so he’s not a stupid guy. I mean, aside from the Murkowski vote, and all.
Thoughts?
Crazy?”

“Election officials are scheduled to finish counting the final 15,000 write-in ballots Sunday – but that most likely won’t be the end of the road for either Miller or Murkowski.”
I think this is good news, with the last count Miller gained over 2,000 votes, if he gains another 2,000 with this chunk and with potentially thousands of military votes still to be counted next week until Wed. 11/17’s military/overseas ballot deadline - this race will still be decided by the contested votes.
Question for many of us - are they counting the military ballots right along - if many of these last 15,000 are military, Miller could gain more than the 2,000 he gained among the initial batch of absentees.
Of course the idiot propagandists at the Seattle Times/New York Slimes want to declare this for murky, but even her own camp doesn’t dare disenfranchise the military voters overtly.
IT AINT OVER FOLKS.
Yes, it is crazy to think that anyone in the military voted for Murkowski over Miller.
crazy that a vet would vote for satans daughter!!!
You have got to be kidding....
IF the Alaska Military members got a different ballot than the rest of the voters—this could end up in court for a long time.
I think that ALL ballots must be the same.
If anyone can find a military ballot that did NOT get cast—which shows this kind of discrepancy—this could doom Lisa & the Alaska Elections officials.
They are playing fast & loose with the rules as it is.
Pretty stupid, as well as disgusting.
With the internet- a copy of an unused military ballot for Alaska could go viral in seconds.
Sorry, but I don’t think your Brother voted. No offense, but,I think he was too embarrassed to admit that he didn’t vote. Lisa Murkowski’s name was not on the ballot.
