I personally prefer Joe Miller but the good thing is now people will pay more attention to write-in votes which will help in 2012 when ballot access issues will prevent parties from being on the ballot in some states.
Richard,
My concern is the security of the ballots from Nome, Wasilla, Fairbanks, and Anchorage to the counting location in Juneau. As a reired Senior Level Traffic
Manager Specialist for the United States Government
the plan to protect the ballots IN TRANSIT to Juneau
is flawed.
Sincerely, Mark Seidenberg
Any John Doe / Joe Smith write in candidates coming soon ???
Richard,
The start in Juneau is still on for 10 a.m. on Wednesday to start the count of the write-in votes.
Sincerely, Mark Seidenberg
