ANCHORAGE, Alaska Write-in votes for Joe Miller in the Alaska Senate race wont count toward the GOP nominees tally.
So says Lt. Gov. Craig Campbell.
Campbell, who oversees elections, tells The Associated Press that because Millers name isnt on the official list of write-in candidates, any ballots with "Joe Miller" written in wont be credited to the tea party favorite.

Lawsuit! Intent of the voter! Whatever else Gore’s lawyers said in 2000!
Will Alaska have a runoff election if nobody gets 50%+1?

Why would someone write in Joe Miller if his name was already on the ballot?

BS. I saw the official list. Joe is indeed on there, as well as McAdams, and over 150 other people.

Mercowskee wanted her list handed out, so the list got “expanded.” Joe wasn’t on the list, he was on the ballot.
It’s sauce for the gander.

It just shows how hard it is to get the “blue bloods” out.

stupid voters. Note to future candidates facing a write-in challenge: make sure you add your name to the write-in list.

I think the lamestream media played a big role in driving a lot of voters to Murkowski with their suggestions on the national news (6 p.m. Eastern time, noon in Alaska) that the close contest between Miller and Princess Lisa could be just enough to split the vote and allow the Democrat pick up this seat.
The RINO establishment and their media allies are probably already congratulating themselves for this clever gambit.

Joe Miller was on the write-in lists that we saw here. I don’t know if those were accurate or not.

Why would Miller’s name be on the list when he’s on the ballot? Typically, the write-in list would NOT be inclusive of anyone who was legitimately on the ballot. This is a non-issue. Anyone stupid enough to write in a candidate who’s name is already on the ballot deserves to not have their vote counted.
