If you’re an Alaska resident and qualified to run for Senate, Big Government wants you to take action today to highlight the chaos brought about by Lisa Murkowski’s seemingly unending quest for power with her write-in campaign. But you must act today.
Early yesterday, Alaska Superior Court Judge, Frank Pfiffner followed the rule of law, maintaining that Alaska’s voting regulations can not suddenly be changed in an ad hoc manner at the last minute to benefit Murkowski’s write-in campaign.
Dealing a setback to the write-in Senate campaign of incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski, an Alaska superior-court judge ruled today that election workers can’t provide lists of write-in candidates to voters on Election Day, calling it a “clear violation” of Alaska regulations.
In its 50 year history as a state, Alaskan election workers have never been allowed to provide lists of write-in candidates on election day. But late yesterday, the Alaska Supreme Court stayed his order, allowing for the unprecedented practice to proceed.
While it remains unclear how the court may ultimately rule, there is something qualified Alaskans can and should do today to let those in power know you are paying attention to how they use it.
The order from the state’s highest court temporarily allows that list of write-in candidates to be handed out, with conditions. But those who disagree with the decision say the state’s entire political process is at stake.
The decision is a potential game-changer for Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s write-in campaign, as well as those of her opponents, Democrat Scott McAdams and Republican Joe Miller.
Lisa Murkowski has recently made it known that she does not believe the law, or even the Constitution, should get in the way of how she thinks Alaskans and all Americans should be governed. See video at bottom. If the Alaska Supreme Court rules in her favor, they will be saying precisely the same thing. What you can do is make sure that your name, too, is listed as a write-in candidate for Senate from Alaska by election officials simply by completing two forms and following the accompanying instructions.
Here is a one page candidate registration form. Here is the appropriate financial disclosure form. If even one qualified Alaskan completes the forms and follows the instructions, a significant statement will have been made.
This is your chance to let the ruling class know you are watching and are fed up with the silly games. It is time our courts and our legislators abide by our laws and our Constitution. Heck, who knows, if you’re lucky, enough people might opt to write-in your name, allowing you to become part of the ruling class. Now, wouldn’t that be a hoot! Embrace the cold chaos and enlist in Big Government’s effort. We want you to run for the Senate from Alaska. But to make a difference, you must file the forms above. Do it today!
