Ranked choice voting is another of those “reforms” sold to improve things.

Would not surprise me if it takes weeks to figure out who won the special House election.

They’ve got to get rid of these wonky new primary voting systems (and open primaries) because they’re way too open to fraud and numerical manipulation.

What about going back to the “whoever gets the most votes cast by registered voters of their party on voting day is the winner” model?

I’ve heard thar it was Murkowski’s attorney who either invented this method, or was responsible for bringing it into Alaska.

Pretty convenient for Murkowski to make up the rules.

The more complicated you make the system, the more chances there are to cheat and game the system.

Ranked Choice voting involves lots of ballot counting and recounting.

It has not worked will in Australia and New Zealand, in my opinion.

I didn’t realize it until today that the voters voted this. They wanted rank voting. Red state voters certainly can be strange.
