There's a trick to that case...And it's whether the vote could be for this candidate or that candidate.

Our case with Miller is totally different. You have to find the rule that applies and in our case, it's specifically, the spelling rule.

No trick involved. Statutes in that case directed looking at voter intent. That is the smoking gun here, because you are correct, "Our case with Miller is totally different."

The Alaska Supreme Court applied the statute as written in that case. If they do the same in Miller vs Murkowski, voter intent will not be considered.

Cheers!
