Dunleavy Rallies Early Voters: Back Repeal of Ranked-Choice Voting, Rank the Three Republicans 1-2-3 in Governor's Race
Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy published a signed op-ed titled "Vote, Plus Five" in The Alaska Story on October 20, urging Alaskans to vote during the early voting period and then "call five friends and make sure they vote too." The piece has two themes. First, Dunleavy supports Ballot Measure 2, the proposal to repeal ranked-choice voting, and says he will vote yes.
Second, he offers a strategy for the governor's race: Democrats have consolidated, with Tom Begich dropping out and endorsing Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins, while three Republicans will be on the November ballot — Bernadette Wilson, Dave Bronson and Treg Taylor. Dunleavy urges Republican voters to rank the three Republicans first, second and third in their own order of preference, saying that "ranking another Republican second or third does not take anything away from your first choice." He stresses that the gas pipeline, the resource economy, reliable energy and jobs that keep young people in Alaska all depend on voters turning out now.
Early voting is under way in Alaska.
