One-way voters in Wyoming and Alaska could sound a resounding message of support for President Trump would be to succeed in the primary challenges to Liz Cheney (U-Wyoming) and Lisa Murkowski (U-Alaska) on Tuesday.
WASHINGTON – Cheney faces daunting prospects in her effort to fend off the Trump-backed Harriet Hageman, increasingly looking at a life beyond Capitol Hill that could include a possible presidential campaign. Murkowski, however, is expected to advance from her primary and is already planning to compete in the November general election.
The anticipated outcomes at least partially stem from the nuanced politics of each state. Wyoming is a Republican stronghold, delivering Trump his strongest victory of any state in the 2020 campaign. Alaska, meanwhile, has a history of rewarding candidates with an independent streak.
But Murkowski enjoys an additional advantage in the way elections are being conducted in Alaska this year. Winner-take-all party primaries, like the one Cheney is facing, have been replaced by a voter-approved process in which all candidates are listed together. The four who get the most votes, regardless of party affiliation, advance to the general election in which ranked voting will be used.
Murkowski benefits from avoiding a Republican primary, “which she would have had a zero percent — I mean zero percent — chance of winning,” said Alaska pollster Ivan Moore.
Murkowski has 18 challengers in her primary, the most prominent being Republican Kelly Tshibaka, whom Trump has endorsed. (READ MORE)
Satan considers Liz Cheney and Lisa Murkowski to be two of his finest inventions and favorite pets.
Along with the FBI and FBI Agents, of course.
WHAT LIBERALISM IS
Actually, its yet another case of,…leftists distorting the meaning of words,..
“Classic liberalism, which is what was just liberalism before the leftists coopted and distorted it, was, as I understand it, closer to LIBERTARIAN, both being champions of personal LIBERTY.
The promisers of utopias just around the corner, that never actually arrive (Conmunists) really are masters at manipulating language, don’t judge by Harris and Buttgieg.
Substituting equity for equality, …knowing many won’t notice or understand the difference.
reminds me of a scene from a movie.
Woman is sitting, all despondent,…
“Whats wrong?” her friend asks.
“They called me a,…a PARIAH!”
“You DO know what a pariah IS, right?”
friend asks.
“Of COARSE I do,…they’re saying I’m a man eating FISH!”
SMILE, people!
Satan is an as shole .
always has been
and his minions are just as evil
and likely don’t even need Satan’s direction
Yet oddly enough the majority of those who identify as religious in the US identify as Democratic voters, and by a very wide margin.
Uncomfortable facts people like to pretend don’t exist.
It’s not uncomfortable.
I work with these cucks.
They crow about how Christian they are because they are EMOTIONAL! and have delicate fee-fees that mean old men like me hurt by injecting common sense and rational thought into any conversation.
Nope. Not surprised by that at all.
many people who profess to be super religious use their
religion as a cloak to justify any evil deed they perform
see Mike Pence
The “religious” persons that I know all attend Methodist, Presbyterian,
Lutheran, a few scattered Catholic churchs. ALL of them identify their religion
by repeating, verbatim, the feel good talking points of the church of now.
None like to be called Christians. They identify that as hillbilly Trump supporter
types. None of them discuss jesus, outside of Sunday school class.
And, not a single one of them has the word “Satan” in their vocabulary.
He doesn’t exist. They don’t mention him, he’s yesterday. The fact that
he doesn’t exist in many people’s minds is the reason that good is ceasing
to exist.
I’m proud of being a plain vanilla Christian. Remember to wear the armor of God daily, as satan roams like a roaring lion.
A lot of rote in the Catholic Church…say this, do this, now kneel, now stand up, now shake the hand of the person next to you. Just put a computer in your seat with an avatar on it. Some of the most Godly people I know don’t attend a church building, they live by the 10 Commandments, as closely as possible. I love these people
I am religious in the sense that I have a personal relationship
with God many times a day. Raised Catholic, love the pomp
and circumstance and spirituality of the religion; yes, the
one from yesteryear – in Latin! I totally ignore most of what
goes on today and just keep on praying; thanking God for
my children, grandchildren, job and wonderful life he provided
for me.
Nepots of the world unite! You have nothing to lose but your trust funds …
Any Alaskans in the Treehouse who can provide some local perspectives?
They mostly comment on The Conservative Igloo 🙂
I believe the woke term is … ice dome domicile. Igloo sounds … so … white. Well they are white … but you white supremacists know what I mean. Or like a frozen ice cream treat. Ohhhhhhhhh mommaaaaaaa … we can’t say Eskimo or Igloo … those words re sooooooo 1952.
Besides, igloos were intended only as hunting shelters…
you
Alaskan here. Tomorrow we’re voting for Don Young’s replacement in Congress for a special congressional election. It’s ranked choice with 3 options, Sarah Palin (R), Nick Begich (R), and Mary Peltoa (I/D?). It’ll decide who fills the open seat until Jan 2023.
Also tomorrow, is the primary vote for that same congressional seat’s full term, starting in Jan 2023. Same names on that ballot, plus more. The top 4 vote getters move on to the Nov general election for ranked choice.
And finally, the senate fun. Kelly Tshibaka is the clear MAGA favorite. But, the top 4 vote getters will move on to the Nov general for ranked choice. That gives Murkowski a chance to sneak a win. If enough Dems and Independents vote Murkowski as #2 on the ranked choice, then she may beat Kelly Tshibaka.
To make things even more complicated, vote counts won’t be final for 2 weeks after the election, because of Alaskan voter laws with absentee/mail in ballots.
Pray for a clean election.
🙏🏻
Remember the write-in candidate vote with all of the misspelled version “Lisa Murkowski” when she lost in the Republican primary?
That’s likely to be an an unanswered prayer.
/Mat-Su resident
If the voting HQs don’t allow proper Republican observers to watch for corruption, just unload the hungry Grizzly bear from the truck just as the tranquilizer is wearing off……
And the ballots where alaskans voted for this whackadoo system, used the same corrupt election system we now know is in all 57 States, right?
suggest you review Ozero Video of the statement….total was 59 or 60 states….he said he had ALREADY been to 57
Dominion voting and delayed results, yep. It passed in the Nov 3rd, 2020 election. That says everything.
Wyoming and Alaska…. please vote these skanks out!
Who invented (conjured up) this “ranked choice” scheme?
Project Veritas just released a 3 part video series about it this week. They had a reporter infiltrate Murkowski’s campaign group and got her people to open up about it.
According to …
https://www.fairvote.org/a-brief-history-of-ranked-choice-voting
… English thinker and member of Parliament John Stuart Mill did.
And John Stuart Mill had a lot of influence on Fabian Socialism. In fact, some analysts say that early Fabian economic theory was largely influenced by Mill’s Principles of Political Economy and his essay On Liberty. Certainly the Fabians Society showed a lot of interest in him. They commissioned Julius West, who clerked for the Society, to write Tract No. 168 (https://archive.org/stream/johnstuartmill00westuoft/johnstuartmill00westuoft_djvu.txt ) titled “John Stuart Mill”. Here are some excerpts from it …
“The history of the intellectual life of J. S. Mill is contained in his efforts to escape from the narrow individualistic creed of his progenitors, real and spiritual, and his gradual approach towards Socialism.”
“At the age of twenty he virtually founded the London Debating Society,” which seems to have been something like the Fabian Society would have been if it had no Basis and no external objects.”
“To the end of his days he was haunted by the bogey of population ; he despaired of ever achieving a state where the distribution of wealth should be equitable”
“The abuse of power and the detrimental effects of involuntary subordination are themes which recur more frequently in Mill’s work than any other. It is because he objects to the dominance of capital that he becomes so nearly a Socialist.”
And quoting Mill’s himself …
“ . . . . the intellectual and moral grounds of Socialism deserve the most attentive study, as affording in many cases the guiding principles of the improvements necessary to give the present economic system of society its best chance.”
And I’m always saying, regarding important people, look at their associations. Well, in that regard, Mill was friends with none other than Richard Potter, the father of Fabian Society founder Beatrice Webb. And Edward R. Pease, another Founder of the Fabian Society, who was depicted along with Sidney Webb hammering the Earth in George Bernard Shaw’s famous Fabian Window and was Secretary of the Society for 25 years, included John Stuart Will in Chapter 1, “The Sources of Fabian Socialism”, of his book “The History of the Fabian Society”.
He noted, for example, that “Mill’s indictment of the capitalist system, in regard to its effects on social life, was so powerful, his treatment of the primitive socialism and communism of his day so sympathetic” suggested “to some of his readers, at any rate” “that there was an alternative to the capitalistic system, and that Socialism or Communism was worthy of examination.”
And when Pease discussed Fabian Society Trace No. 5, “Facts for Socialists”, adopted in January, 1887, he mentions Mill again, noting that “Facts for Socialists” was the work of Sidney Webb and that it “is, as its title implies, simply a mass of quotations from standard works on Political Economy, strung together in order to prove that the bulk of the wealth annually produced goes to a small fraction of the community in return either for small services or for none at all, and that the poverty of the masses results, not as the individualists argue, from deficiencies of. individual character, but, as John Stuart Mill had declared, from the excessive share of the national dividend that falls to the owners of land and capital.”
And later in the book he notes that Ernest Barker of New College Oxford (which is a Fabian Socialist bastion), when writing about Fabians in his book “Political Thought in England from Herbert Spencer to the Present Day” wrote that “Mill rather than Marx was their starting point.” He also notes that when William Morris read the passage in which Mill admitted that the worst evils of Communism are, compared to the evils of Commercialism, as dust in the balance, he immediately became a Communist. Morris eventually wrote a Fabian Tract (Number 113) titled “Communism” for the Fabian Society.
After reading about ‘ranked choice’ dream on for a clean election. I’m in Missouri and they are making noises about putting that up for vote. It lets progressives win.
Lisa has huge support in the Native Villages, plus, she was the hand-picked successor when her father – he, himself, a U.S. Senator from Alaska for nearly 21 years – was elected Governor in 2002.
Sadly, Lisa won’t be leaving that Senate seat without being in a body bag.
Why does Liz Cheney always look like she’s about to hurl in just about every photo that is taken of her? Seriously unhappy woman. If that’s what she is because I’m not a biologist after all. Lol
I think she’s just bloated. I bet she suffers from indigestion – she is really puffy.
I always thought she looks severely constipated.
Don’t get on an elevator with her unless you can hold your breath for more than 2 minutes. She float one on you.
omg…lol
Too much sitting!! in committees and eating processed food.
Too much worrying about how to get back the power she thinks she had and fighting reality of why she has lost it.
Cheney is entering the final stages of becoming Hillary.
Final … being the operative word …
Hilary, such a dreadful disease.
Sources say that her colostomy bag leaks a lot.
Or Ralphie from “A Christmas Story”.
cheney does the opposition research and pee pee tapes next week.
she never could seem to understand timing.
or anything else
serious question: would anyone even know who lizzard is if not for her daddy?
that’s one of the problems in the US political world. crony sports.
it’s never a good idea.
She is and has been enraged by DJT and us, his supporters. I really have tried to wrap my head around the reason, but having trouble getting into her head? Besides the obvious ‘DC Lifer’ aspect, who hate the outsider who threatens their rightful place as rulers of the universe, not sure what else?
Why? Two reasons: Like Meghan McCain, she was enraged when her daddy, the warmonger, was called out by Trump. I don’t know that #45 ever used Dickie’s name, but his early speeches hit hard on stupid wars that lost blood and treasure and that was an attack on the Iraq mess of Cheney/Bush.
Second, she and her family are the worker bees for the military-industrial complex. Her usefulness on the Hill was expected to be her ability to deliver forever wars and there Trump was trying to get us out of entanglements.
Alex Jones had a video on the PNAC and their desire for wars that last 1,000 years.
Rumsfeld and Cheney were right in there at the top of the grift.
Can you imagine, grifting on the blood and bodies of the human dead you caused?
I want nothing to do with anyone named Rumsfeld, Cheney, or Bush, the REAL axis of evil.
OT, but somewhere I saw a video of Meghan McCain (what’s her MARRIED name?) saying ‘My Daddy’ for about 3 minutes, non stop. Had been cut and put together from interviews or her being on The View.
She’s a child of the 4th branch and doing what she’s told to do to protect the secrets and corruption.
Protecting the swamp coup and daddy dearest. I actually think they all know and plotted 911. That’s what Hillary is referring to on the morning show. Satanic liars.
Murky is every bit as bad. Always looks as if she has an ill-fitting set of lower dentures.
AND……. CONSTIPATED….
I always thought that “constipated” is a good description or Bruce Springsteen’s voice. He sound like he’s really struggling on the toilet to get that puppy out. The poor guy needs a birthing coach .
lol…you ain’t right!
I had a bud in college that loved Born in the USA. I always shredded that song and told the bud that it was “The Three Chord Wonder.”
Exactly. I could never understand how Springsteen made it. Now i know he was picked and controlled. All the so called peace loving freedom rock bands were all about money, as the globalist banking cabal.
he’s the yankee version of jimmy buffet. without the authenticity
LOL!
Thats just what liberals look like
So, literally they ARE all full of sh*t!
She should consider a career in radio. She has the face for it.
Maybe murkowski will finish fifth, and not proceed to general.
Lots of corruption in AK.
Cities like Juneau have a good smattering of leftists so Murky may squeak a win but Cheney is 24 hours away from political extinction.
Let’s not forget how many liberals live in Anchorage…
Love the UniParty designation for their party affiliation. 🤗😁
Can someone explain in simple terms the ranked preference voting up in Alaska. My old brain cells don’t fire as good anymore. 😭😓
You rank 1, 2, 3, 4. The top 3 vote getters move to the next round of counting. If your 1st choice came in last, then its canceled out and your 2nd pick gets your vote. It goes until one candidate hits at least 51% of the vote.
It’s a dumpster fire.
The rules of the game “Fizzbin” [from the Star Trek episode “A Piece of the Action”] make more sense.
I think thats where they got it from.
It is a scam.
and a trap
Praying for these elections. May God bless the USA and bring about the restoration of this country and its rule of law.
He might have to trim it down a bit.
Amen!
Both cheney & murkowski will be primaried tomorrow.
All evil to Liz “Captain Ahab” Cheney is visibly personified, and made practically assailable in Donald Trump. She got so obsessed with going after the one man who dismissed her and her clan’s war mongering most that she lost sight of everything else. She piles upon his back the sum of all the general rage, hate and envy felt by the whole Bush and Cheney clan from George HW Bush on down; and then, as if her chest is a mortar, she burst her hateful heart’s shell upon it..
[“All evil, to crazy Ahab, were visibly personified, and made practically assailable in Moby Dick. He piled upon the whale’s white hump the sum of all the general rage and hate felt by his whole race from Adam down; and then, as if his chest had been a mortar, he burst his hot heart’s shell upon it.”
― Herman Melville]
very good!
Ah, come on. I actually prefered your version, without melvilles, cause I recognised a classic, lol.
my response last night ( “outstanding” ) to above post….sent for approval…..curious indeed.
So even if Tshibaka got 50% of the vote, she still has to face Lisa in the general election? 🤔
Weird.
It’s a top 4 primary. The November general is ranked-choice.
It will be a great pleasure for me to give the thumbs-down to Liz tomorrow. Makes democracy seem worthwhile.
Just too bad she does not get immediately ejected. Still have to deal with her until January.
I hope all of the AK demoncraps vote for the evil Murkowski & no demoncraps advance in the primary.
Kelly can whip Murkowski’s traitorous butt in November.
The top 4 vote getters move on to the general in November. So it’ll be Kelly, Lisa, and 2 others.
Murkowski is so going to benefit from that ranked choice voting.
All by design. Remember when Murkowski had the ‘Teacher’s Union’ write her name in to beat Joe Miller?
I wonder…
Which is exactly why she and her minions made sure the ballot measurewas written and was passed in AK that would do this. See the latest Project Veritas videos for more info on this.
Well admit it. ShevIS pretty RANK, so it makes sense she would benefit.
What can possibly have sex with those two women? My guess is only a donkey.
A trans, non-binary, and blind donkey.
Liz has 5 kids – think about what her husband was willing to do for the money and connections a Cheney marriage would bring? Other than Huma Abedin, I can’t think of anyone who has done something worse for a job.
lol Huma Abedin producing a kid with Weiner, yah that’s pretty much as bad as it can get. 🙂 Maybe it was IVF.
And Huma considers Carlos Danger a mortal enemy kafir.
DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE JEWEL-AOC !!!!!!
DONKEY & MONKEY ????
There isn’t enough viagra on the planet to get my Johnson up for either of these two gas bags.
I swear, I really think they will try to commit massive fraud in Wyoming.
The entire population of Wyoming is 579, 500 people. Meaning there is no logical way the vote cannot be counted in a reasonable amount of time.
Let’s hope they don’t use Dominion machines, if so anything is possible.
No, actually even with all the flaws intentionally designed into the machines, there ARE limitations.
DJT showed us in both elections, and KL just showed us, again.
SWAMP the vote, and you break the algorythm.
This is why they try everything they can, to suppress the MAGA vote; its like the reverse of the mass, mail out ballots.
In the recent primary in Az., they tried sharpiegate, again. Only in MAGA precincts, didn’t fall for it.
And, bolloxed up R ballots in what they knew were MAGS counties, Pima ans Pinal.Didn’t dissuade voters from waiting or going to another polling location.
This was because they counted all counties except Maracopa, first night.
Then, delayed counting and announcing, as Maracopa ballots ALSO favored MAGA.
In order to add votes to make Kari lose, they would have shown 125 percent turn out.
Without the suppressing the vote, ghosts on voter rolls, and a variety of supportive measures (and sometimes even with) if you have an overwhelming landslide, they just can’t cheat, even WITH machines.
Thats why we get hit with lots of comments that, looked at objectively and unemotionally, are discouraging/disheartening (wobegone eeyores, sometimes called) bemoaning how its all hopeless, nothing we can do, or,..
discouraging voting and suggesting 2A is somehow the answer.
They are working hard to suppress the MAGA vote, because this election is not and never HAS been about a “Red-Wave” as in REPUBLICAN wave, its about a MAGA wave, and that, they are TERRIFIED of.
Gotta find people willing to be reasonable, never underestimate corrupt RINOS and Commies.
I have read reports of Wyoming residents receiving what look like real mail-in ballots with ‘Paid for by Liz Cheney for Wyoming’.
Wonder how that will work?
Also, if there are 12K new Republican voters on the rolls and 6K less Dems, how many are phantom registrations or other?
The Democrat running complained that he was sent a Republican ballot rather than a Democrat ballot to vote in the primary. The cheat is on bigly.
If the results aren’t FINAL within 4-hours of the polls closing …. then we will need the pillow guy to investigate the obvious FRAUD
Let us pray that both Cheney and Murkowski are not only defeated but soundly defeated.
We must not just defeat them. We must destroy them so their kind can never rise again!
I hope both of these scowling cisgender birthing people lose by large margins. If they do, then they will both likely run in the mid term election as independents or Democrats, if its possible to do so.
Ladies and Gentlemen, if these two are not Primaried expect what is happening to President Trump to happen to us or our families.
If you live in or know anyone in Alaska or Wyoming start making phone calls to people who are on the fence to drive the point the the end of this insanity we are living in begins with the END of CHENEY AND MURKOWSKI’s Political Careers!
Over emotional, spiteful, bitches! May the fall mightily, and never recover!
Two ugly, unelectable, unf…able monsters!
Hoping that Sara Palin is acting as a maga ‘whip’ in AK to get out the vote?
I hope WY has its act together and ready to stand strong against any election fraud.
Wyoming voters … please don’t stutter … make that Trump-hating-harpy feel the humiliating loss to her bones,
I don’t think Liz Cheney is going to be hurting. She when to congress with 7 million and if she is not selected again she will be leaving with 44 million.
Her husband Philip Perry seems to be well-connected
Philip Perry Chinese Connections
According to an article by the National Pulse, Perry’s law firm represents several clients with links to the Chinese Communist Party. The firm has offices in China and has been called the “tools” of the Chinese Communist Party by the U.S.
State Department and People’s Liberation Army collaborators. They have been advising Tencent (a Chinese company) over its investment in an American organization.
Tencent is suspected to have been controlled by the Chinese government, as per the US government. To expand its horizons in the Chinese market, the company has hired former Chinese Communist Party members.
Since China is a foreign and hostile nation, this newly found information has brought him and his wife Elizabeth Cheney under the radar of the Government as well as the people.
https://world-wire.com/philip-perry-net-worth/
The US is too stupid to realize that EVERY CHINESE COMPANY IS RUN BY THE COMMIE PARTY. Just like Castro getting 98% of all profits of European, Mexican, and stupid lefty Canadian companies trying to do business on that Penal Colony of an Island. Just like trendy left American tourists trying to be sooooo kewl by going, under Obama’s lifting of travel, to “private restaurants” in “civilian homes”…… and those “civilians” being at ranks of Colonel or higher in the Cuban Army (so they go their own hard currency slush fund too!)
Tencent to sell Meituan to appease Beijing.

I have a feeling democrats are going to do everything in their power to make sure these two don’t lose . If elections were fair these two would get obliterated and neither election would be close but we don’t have fair elections anymore.
You will know for sure if massive fraud is taking place by how close these races are . I know a woman who has been very engaged in fighting fraud for tihe past few decades and she says neck and neck elections virtually never happen and if they do happen there’s a lot of fraud taking place.
Over 90% of Cali voters voted to oust Newsom in the recall election but Pelosi said we made sure Newsom (Her Nephew) would be retained regardless of how many voted to recall him. If democrats NEED to win an election they know how to do it and I feel tomorrow will be one of those times.
I hope I’m wrong though.
The Third Big Steal
https://newswithviews.com/newsom-recall-third-big-steal/
And was it Elders who never said a word…fake recall?
I hope they lose
If Murk comes in 5th can she still wage a write-in candidacy like she did before? Honestly, if she advances I am tempted to hope the Democrat wins. Murk isn’t pro life anyway, the Senate will likely not hinge on her vote anymore, and my vested interest in the club controlled congress is barely marginal anymore anyway.
It’s most likely that both Tshibaka and Murkowski will be in the top 4 and advance to the ranked-choice general election. And then I’m planning to work up some scenarios to see if there’s a reasonable voting strategy to increase the chance that Murkowski loses. I just need to see the primary percentages first to get a good feel for how people are voting.
We definitely don’t want to lose that Senate seat, we need to regain the GOP majority there (and in the House too). So I personally would rather see Murkowski be re-elected than lose the seat to a Dem. 2 more years of Dem majorities is going to be trouble for Trump and a big ol’ mess for us.
Yes, point taken. I’m just really tired of Collins and Murkowski always in there playing democrat on critical votes. Hoping the Senate goes red enough it won’t matter.
Me too! And I want to be free of Manchin and Sinema too. It’s sad that we find ourselves reliant at all on two Democrats.
Yeah, you always go there, fake serena, oh sorry fk serena, damn my fingers going numb.
Rather see murkowski than a Dem, lol. She IS a Dem, and there isn’t a single substantive thing that will be any different, if the senate has the D flag or the R flag flying.
She will contribute to a GOP majority which will confer special powers to the GOP and remove them from the Dems. Why is it that you never seem to understand that?
And by the way, your juvenile insults don’t faze me. I know I’m right. Watch Steve Bannon’s CPAC speech, he too understands well the importance of House and Senate majorities.
Actually, there is a difference at times. An R can give us a majority. A R will vote R sometimes, whereas a D never does.
That’s the difference. Surely you grasp these concepts.
Also, fka Serena can fend for herself, but I want to say your comments attacking her personally are disgraceful, Dutch. I’m offended, even if she isn’t.
I think it’s a given that both Tshibaka and Murkowski will be in the top 4 tomorrow and will advance to the ranked-choice general election. There will be 4 candidates. I’m eager to see the results of the primary so I can work up some realistic ranked-choice scenarios.
As for the Alaska special election, I’m compelled to write again that Palin and Begich voters should rank the two candidates #1 and #2 in the voters’ preferred order to keep the seat in Dem hands. DO NOT rank Palin or Begich #3.
The special election is actually a good practice run for November. The special election is filling the single US Representative seat in Alaska vacated by the late Don Young. The election puts someone in that seat for just the remainder of Young’s term, Jan 2023. If voters screw up and lose that seat to the Dem because they didn’t understand how to best do ranked-choice voting, at least it’s for a short period of time and doesn’t affect the House majority. They’d better not screw up in November though, they’ll be voting not only for the full term US Rep but US Senator as well.
I still do not see any advice to voters on Sarah Palin’s web site or twitter feed regarding how they should do ranked-choice voting. I find that very very disappointing. Like why not take the opportunity to ensure a win for the GOP? But like I said, if voters screw up and lose the seat to the Dem at least it’s only for a few months.
Hope they can stop the fraud and defeat these two RINOS.
I’m not sure I buy the claim in the article that Murkowski benefits so much from ranked-choice. In all of the polls I’ve seen she’s leading Tshibaka ever so slightly.
Its a big lie. She is hated up here at this point.
OK that’s good. Hopefully that will be reflected in the results today.
C’mon AK & WY, come get your trash…
A good night’s sleep and a wake-up call before Cheney gets primaried.
Just remember that cockroach Murkowski isn’t gone until she loses in the general. She’s been primaried out before and won the election with split Reps and Dem support.
Hopefully Project Veritas’s reporting got on Alaskan news stations and to the local GOP voters.
Send the coke-addled Murk to the unemployment line.
This is the BEST thing I’ve read all day about Lizzie. From Sidney Powell’s Monday post re Defending the Republic:
https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2022/08/13/liz-cheney-just-got-the-endorsement-she-needs-try-not-to-laugh-too-hard-n611811
I thank God for Project Veritas exposing Murki for secretly supporting ranked choice voting… just another crime family and servants of the devil
Project Veritas has some Murkowski staffers on tape saying how they helped change Alaska to ranked choice voting in order to help Murkowski keep getting re-elected. For people who push “democracy” so much, they sure do like anti-democratic voting measures.
So, just to clarify. Alaskas got crazy jungle primary, but supposing it had a real primary, and murkowsi was going one on one with tshibaka.
Some are suggesting if I lived in Alaska or Wyoming, and watched as Chaney or murkowski blatantly and obviously cheated in the primary (cause how could they possibly win, otherwise?)
that in the General election in November, I should vote for THEM, because;
A) the Dems are worse!
No, not ANY worse the R’s in the majority for the next two years will attempt to burnish their trashed ‘brand’, with meaningless gestures we call kabuki theater, highly scripted dramas contrived specifically to perpetuate the myth that we have two parties in opposition, concealing a one party system.
B) if you don’t, the Senate or House might have a D majority, and THAT would be TERRIBLE!
Again, no SUBSTANTIVE difference, lots of letters, hearings like Gowdy, their questioning of Fauxi or Austin LOOKING like they are giving them a tough grilling, but just when it looks like they have the witness on the ropes, and are going in for the kill,…oh, sorry your time has expired!
We seen this show too many times before, and we ain’t falling for it, any more.
The same argument would not only apply to voting for Romney but to McConnell, Graham and in fact every Senator with an R after their name.
I will rip my arm off, and beat myself senseless with it, before I will EVAH cast a vote for a RINO, again.
Your style of voting is why we lost the House majority in 2018 and the Senate majority in 2020.
Wow they both should consider a career in radio because they have faces made for it.
The Dems better unleash another bio weapon on us so they can get those mail order candidate elected again.
Peter Navarro said yesterday on War Room that Liz Cheney was already sited for cheating in mailing out mail in ballots to voters in Wyoming..and there are 11K more registered Republicans in Wyoming that have magically appeared…probably Dems registering as Republicans to vote for Cheney. He says the vote will be much closer than we would expect.
Would rather see Wyoming go blue in the general if she somehow wins the primary.
The Alaska race is more important IMHO, tougher rave to win and one less decepticon for the old gobbler.
I know it’s tempting to want that, but the House and Senate majorities are too important. Even a horrible RINO contributes to GOP majorities. Watch Steve Bannon’s CPAC speech. And ask yourself if Dem or GOP majorities would be better for the 2024 election and Trump’s second term.
Socialism GOP Rino get Rid of,GO for MAGA.
Alaska is of large concern to me. The ranked voting ensures that the de facto Democrat in the race, Murkowski, can also be the Republican in the race. I would hope that a series education program has been undertaken by Alaska MAGA on how to navigate the voting system in a way that best ensures a Murkowski loss. I would think that just picking one name on the ballot is the best way, but I would want a legal opinion that this means the ballot isn’t somehow thrown out as incomplete. Option 2 is Tshibaka and then all the next choices be Democrats actually listed as Democrats.
I’ve been wanting Palin and Begich to outright tell voters how to vote in the special election today which is ranked choice. Tshibaka should do the same before the November election.
Take a look at my special election scenarios to see how easy it is to lose the US Rep seat to a Dem if the Palin and Begich voters get emotional and want to punish the other R candidate (e.g., Palin voters want to punish Begich).
Here’s what can happen if Palin voters rank Palin #1 and Begich #3 , and Begich voters rank Begich #1 and Palin #3. I’m doing 100 total votes to make the math easy:
48 vote Palin Peltola Begich
27 vote Peltola Begich Palin
25 vote Begich Peltola Palin
Begich is out. Of the people who ranked Begich #1, their votes go to their second choice, Peltola. Peltola wins with 52. Dems win the seat.
Now here’s what happens if the Palin voters rank Palin #1 and Begich #2, and Begich voters rank Begich #1 and Palin #2.
48 vote Palin Begich Peltola
27 vote Peltola Begich Palin
25 vote Begich Palin Peltola
Begich is out. Of the people who ranked Begich #1, their votes go to their second choice, Palin. Palin wins with 75. Republicans keep the seat.
And by the way you can just pick your #1 ranking and leave the rest blank, but you are throwing a lot of power away by doing that. Wait for the primary to see the relative percentages of the top 4 who will advance to the general, and then work out some scenarios to see how best to rank the candidates. But don’t lose that Senate seat to the Dem. We need GOP House and Senate majorities.
I still don’t understand how this works; why would anyone vote for this system?
LIZZY is done can not wait till she concedes
KARMA
I’M LAUGHING… OL LIZ IS GONE!! SHE IS NOT GOING TO WIN!! VOTERS GET TO THE POLLS AND GET HER ASS OUT DEFINITELY!!
I have more confidence in Cheney being gone than Murkowski. With Alaska’s new rank choice voting if Alaskans put Murkowski in their 2nd ranking then she will win. She’s counting on that. Alaskans either have to not include her within the ranking or place Murkowski at 3rd. And my understanding is there has to be 3 choices listed or the vote will be ineligible. People seem to think that rank choice voting is a good thing, it’s just another way to eliminate conservatives/Republicans. Better to go with closed primaries which is where I wish TN would go instead of open primaries. Unfortunately, the squish GOP likes to have open primaries so Dems/commies for the GOP squish candidate. That’s the way it’s been done for decades. The only time this doesn’t work is if the Dems/commies have a strong primary candidate. Doesn’t happen often in TN.
Today’s Senate primary is a simple top 4, not ranked choice. The top 4 vote-getters will advance to the ranked choice general election. Murkowski is pretty much guaranteed to advance, as is Tshibaka and one particular Dem. The fourth spot is less predictable right now according to what I read.
IMO it would be great if the 4th spot were taking by another R so that in the ranked choice general election there are 3 Rs and 1 D, that will increase the chance of keeping the seat Republican while also giving pathways to get rid of Murkowski.
Cheney will soon be updating her Wikipedia page to “Former House Representative.”
You in Alaska: Why would you vote for your demise? The Bidan Regime is grabbing Land left and right in your State. Murkowski is at the tip of that spear…climate change, dontcha know. Her whole purpose right now is to hand over as much of Alaska as she can to the Feds! She needs to be fourth choice on all ballots, or fifth, sixth..whatever the last choice is. Save your State!
I pondered this for the longest time trying to understand who the “One – way voters” are.
I’m a little slow this morning.
