I’m still learning how this ranked choice works. The above shows the % of first place votes. Second place votes haven’t been counted yet.
It ultimately comes down to who Begich’s second choice voters selected.
Most will have chosen Palin but she’s so hated by so many l don’t think it will be enough.
Peltola will not be a rubber stamp for disastrous dim policies unless she only wants one term. I doubt she wants that because the town she’s from is as bad as any Siberian shithole you can imagine.

Alaska actually has very interesting voting procedures, in a way, it eliminates fringe candidates from ascending, pretty much does away with the primaries where the fringes excel

I think we need to thank Sarah Palin for handing the Democrats another victory. I do not know whether she is doing this on purpose or not, but she is doing a great service to America.
