On an Alaska related note, looks like repeal of RCV is on the ballot in November...

If Alaskans want to save their state, RCV and those RCV-enabled electronic voting machines have got to go.
“If Alaskans want to save their state, RCV and those RCV-enabled electronic voting machines have got to go.”
Yeah where they tell us a month after the election that magically the Democrat or preferred Republican has won. Isn’t that amazing!
It’ll be tight, but I think I can get to all 3 states to vote....
Go and vote today, Americans in Florida, Wyoming and Alaska!! Marxist, there is a primary in North Korea.. vote there!!
I voted early by mail in FL.
Unlike CA we Floridians will know who are the winners by 10pm or earlier tonight.
Over the past 25 years Florida has cleaned up its election systems after the Bush/Gore debacle in 2000.
In Alaska, a total of 77 ballot measures appeared on
statewide ballots between 1986 and 2024. Voters
approved 44 ballot measures
I just voted at the polling place in my small Florida town. I voted at 10:00 and when I walked in I was the only voter there, but someone came in after me. I was the 37th voter of the day. I don’t know how many voted early or by mail.
A radio news report here in Florida stated the first hour of voting had Republicans ahead over Dems by a two to one margin. Sounds good

๐จ JUST IN: As of noon ET, Florida Republicans are out-voting Democrats by MORE THAN *DOUBLE*
The surge is insane...wow.
Election day primary 2026 is now 11.8 points redder than 2022! ๐คฏ
๐ด Republican: 283,267 (63.89%)
๐ต Democrat: 123,581 (27.9%)
KEEP SURGING.
This is SUPER important nationally because assuming a tight US House race, Florida can sway 4 seats red because of redistricting.
We need this energy through November!
Republicans stay united in FL!

It’s a beautiful day in Florida.
Per NBC:
“The federal investigation related to the dueling Republican Senate candidates in Alaska with the same name has entered a new phase.
A grand jury last week issued subpoenas to compel information from witnesses linked to the campaign of Dan J. Sullivan, a law enforcement official told NBC News.
Dan J. Sullivan, a former schoolteacher who recently registered as a Republican, is under investigation of whether he is part of a conspiracy to confuse voters and steal votes from the incumbent, Dan S. Sullivan, who has been in office since 2015.
The convening of a grand jury and the issuing of subpoenas have not been previously reported. The revelations come on the day polls opened in the closely watched Senate primary.”
Byron Donalds 166,841 49.3%
Jay Collins 92,716 27.4%
With 20.7% reporting.
Incumbent Debbie Wasserman Schultz wins the Democratic primary for Florida’s 20th Congressional District, NBC News projects.
๐จ BREAKING: Trump-endorsed Byron Donalds EASILY WINS the Florida Republican primary for governor, he’ll now face leftist David Jolly (D) in November.

This is great news. Republicans are over-performing before November, where we need a RED SWEEP to pick up +4 House seats thanks to Gov. Ron DeSantis’ redistricting
Mike Beltran wins the Republican primary in Florida’s 14th Congressional District, NBC News projects.
He’ll face Democratic Rep. Kathy Castor in a district the state GOP redrew to become a Republican-leaning seat.
“BREAKING: Trump-endorsed Byron Donalds EASILY WINS the Florida Republican primary for governor, heโll now face leftist David Jolly (D) in November.”
David Jolly, who like Charlie Crist was a pretend Republican and is now a Democrat.
Whatever it takes to gain power.
