Alaska Supreme Court Won’t Order Ballots Reprinted, Despite Their Omission of Party Labels for Certain Candidates

On September 18, the Alaska Supreme Court verbally announced a decision after the hearing in Galvin v State. The Alaska ballots have already been printed without the partisan labels for the nominees of unqualified parties, and without the partisan affiliation of major party nominees who are not members of the party that nominated them. The 2020 ballot does not follow state law, and injures certain candidates. But those ballots will be used anyway. See this story.

  1. The rotted hacks get past another election —

    with their illegal ballot machinations.

    Obvious remedy —

    NEW ELECTION at the cost of the hacks.

  2. It is odd.

    The ballots read

    “Democratic Nominee” etc. taking up considerable space.

    Somebody spent considerable time thinking up a way to indicate that Galvin was merely the nominee of the party.

    Voters will be voting on a Top 4 primary. The ballot label concentrates on that aspect, and little about the dark money.
