It will come down to Chesbro voters who chose Murkowski as their second choice, putting Murkowski over the top.

The Frozen Cow is hanging in there. She’s probably off celebrating with Dizzy Mz Lizzie over the RATS big mid-term win.

Once the actual Rat is out, who is the second choice of the Rat voters? Of course it will be the RINO (Rat lite). If the RINO is out, then what is the second choice of the RINO voters, well for many it is the Rat over the conservative. That is why MAGA/conversative lose in ranked voting.

I'll have the conservative [1 vote] loses to I'll have the leftist [1 vote] or the RINO [another vote].

How is that not a violation of one person one vote? And no, I cannot define a person. I am not a biologist.

I am unaware of a single time a conservative has won a ‘ranked voting’ ballot.

It was a ballot question in NV Tuesday. Looks like it passed b the first round. Also another two. One to add “non discrination” verbiage to the Nevada Revised Statutes and the other mandating $12.00 min wage. Sadly we’ve been unable to harness the power of the abudant stoopidness available nationbwide.

The second choice of the RINO voter is ALWAYS the Democrat.

This is why “winning” a GOP primary with a MAGA candidate gains nothing.

And, not for nothing - what you are calling “RINOs” is a misnomer. THEY are the real Republicans.

Frank Luntz says Rank Choice voting will solve our political divide dilemma.
No one should ever listen to Frank Luntz again.

Even though it is not officially over in Alaska, it's over.

Thanks to RCV, Lisa Murkowski is returning to Washington for another six years to chip away at our freedom.

Murkowski always finds a way to hang onto power, doesn't she?

Why ignore him? He is right!

Ranked Choice Voting WILL end the political divide, because we will be ruled by the Democrats forever, and there will be absolutely NOTHING anyone can do about it, short of an ARMED INSURRECTION!!

Pretty easy when they use rank choice voting. How long do these fraudulent elections have to go in before they get rid of rank choice? What needs to happen to get rid of it?

Ranked choice is really not different than having a run-off like they do in Georgia, it just does the run off on the same ballot.

So will Murkowski and Tshibaka’s 2nd choices be added or do only the Dem’s 2nd choices get distributed?

Nevada is working on it, also.

TOO much room for manipulation, IMO.
