Alaska is so skewed, with the ranked voting Murkowski need to be crushed.. need to make sure this other person gets 50%+ out of the primary..

My guess is the Uniparty will back a few more folks and try their best to split to anti Murkowski vote to help her survive to the general

“need to make sure this other person gets 50%+ out of the primary..”

This isn’t Louisiana, where a candidate getting a majority in the primary is elected, so that doesn’t matter here. The top 4 vote-getters in the primary automatically advance to the general election regardless. That will be the Cow, Kelly, and 2 others. We can only hope that voters for the 2 minor-party candidates favor Tsibusha over Murkowski as their #2 choice, because that’s exactly where this election is going to be decided.

Without “Rigged Choice Voting”, the general election would basically be a 1-on-1 matchup. That wouldn’t guarantee a good outcome, but there’d be a better chance of one. Which is why liberal groups spent a ton of money last time around successfully getting RCV to be voted in by a largely clueless electorate.
