Come on....I can see disputing hang chads....but even a Dem knows who they meant.
Too bad the RNC didn’t know the meaning of a primary.
I agree. I have no dog in this fight, but a voter in Alaska who writes “Mercowski” or “Mircowski” is obviously trying to vote for Lisa Murkowski. It’s silliness to argue otherwise. Those votes should count, IMO.
Too bad. The LAW states they have to spell it write or it doesn’t count.
“Under state law, the write-in oval must be filled in and either a candidate’s last name or the name as it appears on her candidacy declaration has to be written in. Miller’s attorney, Thomas Van Flein, said he intends to hold the state to that standard.”
In that case, let's just dispense with the rule-of-law and go with our feelings.
If the situation were reversed, would Ms. Merkowski give any quarter?
The law says that the name must be spelled correctly. Either we have a rule of law, or we have chaos.
I cannot favor chaos, personally.
