This is going to be a terrible Thanksgiving holiday for Sarah. What the hell is wrong with the voters in Alaska? Hell, Palin was the most popular governor in the country at the time she was in office and took on special interests and her own party, even putting some of them in jail. Jeez!

What is wrong is they have ranked choice voting.

The RepukeLicking establishment threw the "election" to the Democrat.

The Backstab Party is losing my future votes, slowly but surely.

It was also because two "R"s were entered in the race: Sarah, and also a butt hurt ¡Jeb! acolyte spoiler.

The second-choice candidate gets the nod.

Not an accident.

The Alaska voters were sold a bill of goods with the ranked-choice system.

Not sure if this can be undone, but it will certainly be the end of the Repbulic if this cancer is allowed to spread.

I blame the GOP dude, he split the vote.

Palin wins out right if dude doesn’t run.

Sometimes you gotta think about the bigger picture.

Palin lost and Murkowski won for the same reason - manipulation of the elections and candidates by the left.

Simple as that . . .

Ranked choice voting is a really messed up method. It favors the least popular candidates by the way it’s tabulated, and people don’t realize that they don’t NEED to rank every candidate - just the ones they want. It’s really misleading. The Federalist explained it very well.

BFD. It’s Alaska. Most of them are suffering from cabin fever.

She should’ve dropped out and let the other Republican win. Or the other guy should’ve dropped out and let her win. both are very spoiled brats.

Palin might have lost because a second Republican - Nick Begich - was in the race and pulled away 23% of the GOP vote.

However, with ranked voting, I would need to see the final numbers to understand if Begich caused the GOP defeat.

It might be possible that Palin, who got 26%, pulled the victory away from Begich.

Begich, from memory, is a youngster, and both his father and grandfather have previously held high office in Alaska.

The stupid Alaskans allowed ranked-choice voting and mail-in ballots. I guess between rotting fish and their elections, they are not only rank—they reek!
