    That’s not strange, that’s how it works. Especially if there’s a strong ‘anyone but Palin’ contingent.

    Star and approval look fucking terrible and is way out of line of the ‘one person one vote’ system we have and I think we want.

    *For anyone wondering about Alaska, there were two Republicans, including Palin, and one Democrat running for house seat. The other Republican was eliminated in ranked choice. Essentially his votes split to both the Dem and Palin, instead of all going to Palin like the Palin people wanted, and the Democrat won. So the GOP there is now mad.
