Don't blackpill! There are specific reasons why this happened.
Rank choice voting and sheer unpopularity of Sarah Palin fucked us.
One Democrat and two Republicans made it into the race. The two reps were Nick Begich and Sarah Palin.
Dem Mary Peltola got 40 percent in first round and two Reps together got 60 percent in first record.
Second round the dem won because Palin made it to the top two.
We lost because enough Nick Begich voters didn't choose Sarah Palin as their second choice. They either supported Peltola or left their second choice blank.
Sarah Palin has -60 approval in her state and Trump still foolishly endorsed Sarah Palin.
We will win this seat back in November as long as we can force incompetent Palin to drop out. Her career deserves to be over. She lost us a seat that has been in Republican hands for decades.
What bizarre reasoning. You don't support the Republican candidate, lose the seat, and it's her fault?
No broheim. If you don't support the candidate, it's not your seat to have, is how this works. She didn't "lose you a seat," you did. This is a clear, unambiguous example of "You get the representation you deserve."
I doubt Alaskans give a shit what you would have done if you had any skin in the game regarding their governance. I have no idea why you feel you have some relevant opinion on the subject either. I do observe that you've been the weird guy popping up in numerous threads for no other reason than to chime in on any political thread tenuously connected to Donald Trump, to throw shit on him and anyone he's ever smiled sideways at. This looks like more of that.
As someone who lives under a DeSantis Governorship, and has been watching you wanting to fuck with that, and now watching your couch-potato General-ass pontificating on the politics of yet another State you don't live in and make grand sweeping pronouncements on their people whom you do not know, how bout you go on ahead and fuck off now. We're doing just fine without your "team-playing."
You are some cringy shit. You have a very obvious monomaniacal goal, and it's tedious as shit. You're completely uninformed, and you pretend to play insider-baseball with the governance of places where you have no knowledge, and no interest.
WEF scumbags destroying the country
Yeah I'm doing this by being a strong parochial citizen, and supporting local good guys, not by power-brokering with far-away places whose political players I do not know.
and not on your fellow citizens on the right.
This from the guy who's been reduced to a one-trick pony, that trick being popping up like a macaw every time the opportunity to fling shit at Donald Trump arises? You are not my "fellow citizen," you are part of the problem. You'd throw your support behind people you haven't vetted, simply because they are capable of giving the appearance of supporting your "team." Then lo and behold, after they get the seat, they stick a knife in you, and you didn't see it coming because you can't be bothered to inform yourself beyond looking at jersey colors.
A theory being passed around Jim's blog is that the Roe vs Wade over turning was meant to enrage lefties and help the inner party ban all opposition from the outer party. Or to put it another way, to turn all states blue.
Don't want to black pill here but wtf happened in Alaska, is this sign of things to come?
During a recession, open borders and extremely bad foreign policies and Republicans are still losing?

If I lived in Alaska, I would have voted for Begich and ranked Palin second.
Too bad Palin is so unpopular that enough people couldn't do what I would do.
Palin's career is over. She needs to be a team-player and drop out.

This is some very cringy shit.
I am not allowed to express certain opinions on a forum because it triggers you?
Maybe you should focus this ire on the WEF scumbags destroying the country and not on your fellow citizens on the right.

Just stop, child.
I see that you enjoy ranting in depth about random people because they happen to express opinions that trigger you.
You don't know anything about what I really want or anything about me and yet you have the audacity to make so many wrong assumptions about me.
You need to relax.
Orange man bad, murowski good
Murowski needs to drop out as murowski is a bigger rino than paul ryan and toomy. Murowski is basically kamala harris with an R
Tldr: morowski fraud machine helped the commie
Why is that?
Palin left the governorship of Alaska early.
She had around 50 percent approval when she left
She recently re-entered politics as soon as a House seat was open. Her favorable ratings right now are abysmal.
My guess is that people see her as too selfish.
Rino propaganda
Alaska is weird. That's about it, I think.

Not terribly shocking. Ranked voting all but guaranteed a Republican loss, as there were multiple Republican choices.
