Her title should be Duchess of Alaska. That is how she got the seat.

To borrow Al Gore's vernacular, here's the inconvenient truth about federal elections currently in the US. Americans on the right side of the political spectrum have no problem with tightening up voting processes and procedures because they will do what's needed to be eligible to vote. On the other hand, Americans on the left side of the political spectrum understand many of their constituents are not motivated to vote if any effort is required.....therefore lax voting standards are preferred by Democratic Socialists, such as mass mail in voting and drop box ballots, with essentially no legal recourse to verify chain of custody when challenged to prove chain of custody.

Oh FFS I am so sick of this shat.

How many had 15 years to register and didnt do it.

How many women got divorced and changed their name back on every conceivable legal document but didnt do it to register to vote.

How many people decided to take a shat on the last day of registration, forgot to buy toilet paper, had to run to the store, and missed the deadline.

Okay thats half a dozen out of 330 million people.

murkowski is a POS and the fact that she would run to that liberal rag to make excuses tells you everything you need to know. Alaskans deserve that POS.

That is not a valid point at all. It's horse shite and Alaskan folks should be fricking furious instead of lazy fricks living in the woods.

Thats not a huge inconvenience to me, but take all these complaints from people anticipating a hard time proving citizenship, and then multiply it by everytime someone moves, even if they dont switch states.

A lot of people will run into problems and either not vote, or else go vote illegally in their old precinct.


I moved out of the F****KING country and all the documentation that entails and I found time to register to vote....cause its important....and I voted for Trump.

Voting should be taken seriously not receiving it in the mail unsolicited like junk mail.

I DGAF about you. How long did you have to ride in Texas in 1846 to cast a ballot?

quote:

which have Department of Motor Vehicle offices where Alaskans can register to vote under current law, the logistics would be daunting

My primary voting location is a high school. Seems quite easy to fix.

getting ballots out in time this year.

So you're saying I can have a custom neon sign designed and built in China, then shipped here, faster than I can get 5,000 ballots printed and mailed to Unalaska? Ok.

quote:

wait one to two months to receive certified copies of their vital records

Sounds like your state is fricked up, lady.

quote:

50,000 Alaskans did in the 2024 general election.

So you're saying less than 10% of your population (738k) would have a problem (presumably the number of people that have ID issues would be a further subset of the 50k that used mail in ballots). Well, fix it.

Seems a lot of Alaskans who consider themselves conservatives are more interested in isolating themselves from the state's political happenings by moving out into the countryside and unplugging from society.

frick her! She had to manipulate their laws and use ranked choice to win her last election.

Don’t think that bitch isn’t harvesting ballots.

You think half of those people are worried about voting living that remote and in that climate?

The SAVE Act is performative nonsense. I doubt its provisions in full ever become law.

As it stands now, I’ve always shown ID when voting in person in La. In NOLA I’ve gotten familiar with the ladies who
work my precinct. They’re very conscientious and meticulous.

After my stroke I started using mail ballots. Everything seems to be in order
and fraud seems very unlikely.

How are these people voting anyway?


In the hub villages, it would be like any standard election in a small town (ours was at the cultural center in town). Rural villages typically will have voting stations at the only church in town...or the tribal office/school

However, many of rural villages outside of that are only accessible by boat or float plane. Mail can be reeeeeallllly late...and unless things have been changed since 2022...all of the paperwork has to go through Juneau (which is also and island).

Biggest issue many of these rural villages have is they frequently dont have drivers licenses (no roads only boardwalks). They do have a tribal id usually issued by BIA.

She has always stayed notable be being a female RINO.....she is nothing more than that. She is not strong enough to make a positive difference, so she makes a negative difference....the definition of RINOs
