[Lnc-business] Alaska Libertarians get a lagniappe

[Scott L.]

Exhibit A:

 

ALASKA 

 

GOVERNOR/LT GOVERNOR

Total Votes  279,958

________________________________________

Walker/Mallott     NA  134,658   48.10%

Parnell/Sullivan  REP  128,435   45.88%

Clift/Lee         LIB    8,985    3.21%

Myers/Rensel      CON    6,987    2.50%

Write-in Votes             893    0.32%

     [ NA means  "non-affiliated" ]

 

 

 

 

Exhibit B: 

 

 

 
http://amandacoyne.com/politics/unintended-consequences-libertarian-will-be-
joining-the-apoc-commission/

 

 

 

 

(they also maintained ballot status, since the vote test is 3% for Governor)

 

 

IMNSHO, this kind of result is infinitely more beneficial to the Libertarian
Party than running 90% of our candidates for offices that are:

 

A.     unwinnable

 

         AND

 

B.  are not included in the vote test for ballot-access retention.

 

 

Mr. Pojunis might have been a little harsh in his recent comments, but he is
on the right track.  Winning is much better than losing.

 

Even though the next Governor of Alaska will not be a Libertarian, the
Alaska Libertarian Party won two very nice consolation prizes.
