The Alaska Senate race is headed to the ranked choice runoff process, as no candidate on the ballot, including top-two voter getters GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski and GOP challenger Kelly Tshibaka, will reach 50%, according to NBC News.

However the eventual winner of the contest shakes out, the seat will remain in GOP hands. The ranked-choice voting system is a method that allows voters in the state to rank candidates in order of preference.

RCV is a sham.

Bill Clinton never reached 50% either.

And a fake conservative third party candidate put him in office.

Someone in a ranked-choice state needs to challenge the constitutionality of RCV. Those whose votes lose actually receive an EXTRA vote in the election, as opposed to those who voted for the leader. How is it at all constitutional that some voters receive two, or three votes in an election?
