I am in Florida and I have all my research done and my sample ballot marked and ready for tomorrow.
Is removing Rank Choice Vote counting on the ballot in Alaska?
In Alaska it only matters who finishes 3rd and 4th. Stupid. If it’s democrats they’ll dilute Peltola’s votes in the general. That’s good but still it’s stupid.
Alaska is getting ready to turn a Senate seat into a local yokel, tribal member PIG Tent Clown Show.
“Is removing Rank Choice Vote counting on the ballot in Alaska?”
It’s on the ballot in November, not in the primary.
I wonder if the ballot measure will be ranked choice, haha. My first preference is yes but my second preference is no. What a stupid system.
Mary Sattler Peltola (former Member of Congress )

Unlike Maine’s RCV, you only vote for one in the primary.
There is a ballot measure which will define the voting electorate. (If it passes, conservatives came out to vote)
This act would change the amount of money that people and groups can give to state and local political campaigns. A court ruling in 2021 removed the limits on contributions by individuals. With this act, individuals could give $2,000 to candidates and $5,000 to political parties. Groups besides political parties could give $4,000 to candidates and $5,000 to other parties or groups. Individuals could also give $4,000 to joint campaigns
for governor and lieutenant governor, and groups could give $8,000. These limits would increase with inflation every ten years beginning in 2031.
Should this initiative become law?
Not sure how this does not run afowl of the recent SP decision?
