Republicans have condemned the presence of two Dan Sullivans on the ballot, calling it a ploy to split votes
“Alaskan voters need to know,” Elisa Rios, whom Peltola fired in August, told the Times, which added that she later tried to retract her interview with the outlet.
Well, I’m convinced.
Okay, and?
The voting laws in Alaska are already upheld by the Alaskan supreme court, and Republicans love to play the “well, this isn’t technically against the rules” when they pull stunts, so I’m all outta fucks.
As a man with two daughters, I’ll never forget Republican hypocrisy about timing to nominate judges WRT Merrick Garland and Amy Coney Barrett.
The alt-right playbook says rules only matter when they can be used against your opponents.
that’s so fucking dumb
Yeah, isn’t this election taking place under a ranked choice vote? Incredibly easy for voters to work around these shenanigans.
Leave it to the New York fucking Times to bend over backwards trying to gin up some controversy about a Dem candidate messing with an election in the last week of October, tho. That fucking shit rag should’ve been burnt to the ground back when they were pushing W’s WMD bullshit two decades ago.
it’s also dumb to run a guy with the same name. It’s all dumb! STOP BEING DUMB
“Sorry, you’re not entitled to the same democracy as everyone else because someone with the same name as you is an incumbent” would be an extremely dumb way to run a country
