Palin gets another swing at Peltola and her leftist agenda in November, and if the greenie-agenda pain is strong enough, and the Bidenflation high enough, there should be flip-back, same as happened in Massachusetts. Alaska is a pretty libertarian state in orientation, and there are a lot of libertarians who are liberal on abortion, which is what was said to have driven the Democrats. But inflation in general tops that as an issue for voters according to most polls, particularly with the Democrats’ extended incompetence on the matter.
Also, this strange rigged election is hardly about to be repeated in the rest of the country, since only a few places now have ranked-choice voting. It’s likely Democrats are going to go big on this form of rigging, given the successes they’ve had with it, but their wish list for it not going to be in place by November 2022. That means the red-wave trend is very likely still in place.
In a nutshell, could someone explain? Did the R’s get 60% of the vote but each one didn’t have enough as the D? For example is it something like this:
38% Palin
22% R challenger
40% for the D
Total 60% for the R’s and 40% for the D?
?????????
Ok...but for most people, gas prices are down so they feel like inflation will follow. For those of you that think abortion will not impact these midterms...i’ve got news for you!
Ranked-choice voting needs to go.
In Alaska, Repubs control the state senate, but in the House you appear to have some RINOs caucasing with the Democrats, thus giving Dems a 1-person majority

Please explain how Palin gets another chance in Nov. are the same candidates on the ballot? Is it the same method of voting? Why would the results be any different? It makes no sense to me.
