The Alaska Division of Elections is well managed and there is no corruption.


I sure hope so. I guess we’ve seen so much corruption we’re a little paranoid.

I’ve never seen a projected winner so I tried to find an update. I the article I found was the most current I could find.

As of yesterday, Nov 8, at 3:08 pm, 212,257 votes were cast.

AK, Senate - 100.00% reporting

Dan Sullivan 48.96%Republican 110,203

Mark Begich 45.34% Democrat 102,054

So, Sullivan won fair and square. What, not so fast.

Now this from here:

"More than 40,000 ballots will likely be counted starting Tuesday, though the number will probably climb even more before then. To win, Begich would have to reverse election night trends and win a substantial majority -- though his allies have pointed out that in the count following Election Day in 2008, Begich overcame a 3,000 vote deficit to Republican Ted Stevens and ultimately won by 4,000 votes."

"The spike between Wednesday and Friday was a reflection of state elections officials’ new accounting for more than 13,000 provisional ballots, 2,200 absentee ballots submitted by fax, mail or email, and some 5,200 ballots cast early at the in-person absentee voting locations across the state."

The longer it goes, the more votes they find. . Going to be close. Hope Priebus has attorneys there and local Republicans are watching the process.
