Worse than a jungle primary, according to Pete, a blanket primary primary where the top-4 advance and then a “ranked choice” (instant runoff) ballot with those 4 in November. It was “passed” in a godless ballot referendum. I hate those.
It’s likely she and a conservative will be the final 2, but frankly I don’t see winning when every rat is free to transfer their vote to Lisa.
The best hope is a strong enough rat that Lisa can stay out of the top 2.
This will need to be the hope for all Alaska races now, RINOs will have very office on lock if it’s just between them and a conservative.
Yep, the only way we can hypothetically win in an election like that is to find a way to make little Lisa end up in 3rd place during the initial round of voting. The candidates on the ballot would be key. You’d need a popular top tier RAT candidate (and only ONE RAT candidate) to ensure the hard D’s loyally support that person and he/she gets around 30% of the vote, and ALSO a very popular and powerful conservative Republican who is clearly to Lisa’s right. If the first round then ended up with something like Conservative GOP-36%, RAT-32%, DIABLO LISA MURKOWSKI-29%, GREEN PARTY-3%, she’d be toast
