And, continuing the pro-Murkowski-pro-democrat/pro-liberal/(pro-abortion) bias in the AK elections departments, the Sec State decided (arbitrarily!) that “Murkowski” did NOT have to be spelled right. “Anything close” (which is what???) will counted as a vote “for” Murkowski!

Which will lead to a court challenge since the SEC doesn’t have the authority to change election law ‘on the spot’, per se.

We have the same rule on write-ins in WI — if the person reviewing the ballots understands the intent of the voter the vote counts, no matter how it’s spelled. Didn’t say I agreed with it, but that is the law.
