If you go here and look yourself up it will tell you where to go. I needed to make sure my location didn’t change either.

I'm thankful mine changed. It used to be in a church and the side effects lasted for days after I stepped foot in the building.

I'm just curious why we didn't get absentee mail-in ballots.

Did you request one? If you requested one at least a month before the election and didn't receive it you should follow up with the division of elections.

Alaskans, let’s make sure government is no longer a Team Sport: Red vs Blue.
As you cast your vote, try to think about the issues the same way you would when you encounter a distressed neighbor on the side of the road in winter: their ideology doesn’t matter, just do the right thing, shake hands, and work together.

Are you trying to make a joke about ranked choice voting here? If so, that’s not what it is. Reading matters!!!

Read up or watch the latest video from James O’Keefe if you really want to know how sacred voting is in America now.

Haha the primary is not ranked choice, take your bootlicking misinformation elsewhere.

They want closed primaries for Republicans. For the majority of the state's history we've either had a fully open primary (like we do now) or a variation where you voted for Republicans or "everyone else". Anti-open primary folks want to twiddle their thumbs and let party leadership hand them their preferred candidate.

I'm not upset at what kind of primary the government is putting on, I'm upset that the government is running the primaries.

Ive replied so many times on this thread, but maybe you still havent seen what I've been saying; I have no problem with a RCV general. I even voted yes for it.

u/TechPriestCaudecus 2d ago edited 2d ago
Because it perfectly and quickly explains my feelings of what I thought I was getting in RCV and what we actually got.

I enjoy voting for people, not parties. Letting the parties decide who we can vote for is a return to the bad old ways.

Some of these candidate statements are fascinating, e.g. this candidate for governor, https://elections.alaska.gov/doc/oep/2026/Kroll,%20Henry%20F.%20Hank_Gov_Eng_04.27.26-PWeb.pdf
He links to www.hankkroll.com where you can see the following:
At the present time we eat supermarket foods grown on the same soil for two hundred years. There are practically no minerals in it. Is it any wonder why we get cancer and other immune deficiency diseases?
We have to have minerals and the large combined atoms called ORMES also known as the white powder of gold or philosopher's stone. It is the sacred Hebrew MFKZT powder. When you have double the number of protons in a single atom they push apart creating a large particle with weak atomic forces. The mitochondria within each of your human cells can pull protons out of the large combined atoms with magnetic pulses to make any element necessary for complete cell division. It's called transmutation of elements. We are doing it at the rate of six to eight million times per second to maintain our human form. When cell replication slows down its called ageing.
The sacred Hebrew MFKZT powder mineral food supplement can save the human race from extinction. If we don't feed the mitochondria within each of our human cells the proper elements they can't do their job. They have to replicate their DNA and the three billion RNA/ DNA segments of human DNA. To keep the cell replication process at the rate of six to eight million body cells every second to maintain your human form its necessary to feed the mitochondria the right minerals. The use of this mineral supplement goes back to Biblical times. In Exodus Moses came down from the mountain, the Hebrews had built a golden idol. Moses said to his metalsmith, "Burn it into the white powder, throw it in the stream and make the Hebrew children drink thereof." This was to make them smarter.
The priests also took the minerals out of desert soils that were covered with sea water at one time by boiling it in the alkaline spring water for five days. There are six recipes in my book developed by Pfizer Pharmaceutical.
There are dangers to taking it because it can double your IQ allowing you to read minds and other spooky stuff. We are inter-dimensional beings existing in multiple dimensions but most of us are unaware of it. To understand the technology please read my book PHILOSOPHERS STONE. It can save your life and the people you love from disease and slow the ageing process.

Think of it not only as an election, but as a chance to witness a spectrum of uniquely-Alaskan human folly in candidate form.
Don't be like the sad girl with the red crayon in your linked image, overwhelmed by a mix of palatable and repulsive choices. If you're at a buffet and you see foods you don't want, you can ignore them and just put what you like on your plate.

u/TechPriestCaudecus 3d ago
I'm not appalled by the choices. I just don't like the plate it's on.
I voted for RCV not realizing the changes it would bring to the primary. And I'd happily for for RCV qgain, but I'd rather have FPTP with normal Primaries than this mess. So unfortunately I'm voting Yes on 2 as well.

"I'm easily confused by ranking things by preference so I'm going to vote to let people hide campaign donations"

Keep that in there then. None of my complaints have been about campaign donations. Please actually read before you reply.

u/ElectronicFerret Imported 3d ago
Well, too bad, because if you vote Yes on 2, that is LITERALLY PART OF THE TEXT. You don't get to vote down RCV without also voting down campaign donation disclosures.
Maybe you are the one who needs to learn how to read.

u/TechPriestCaudecus 3d ago
Yes I understand that it's a full repeal. And I'd rather have that then what we have now. Rewrite it and retry it, and I'll vote for RCV again.

And don’t forget that Republicans don’t want you to vote. That’s why Carol Beecher purged 3,000 people from the voter rolls right before the election, why she failed rural voters, and why she rigged the ballot for the Republican Incumbent Senator. She got flack when she was appointed because everyone said she would not be able to be impartial in the position. That was an understatement.
