Walt Longmire Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Big shoes to fill. Our Governor will appoint someone to replace him until the election in the fall. It's going to be a crap show for sure. And then we have ranked choice voting. That will no doubt screw things up and we'll end up with some flaming liberal. The Bush (Natives) always vote for the most liberal candidate because they want all the handouts. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I've seen. They get paid millions for every little thing and then want more. The reservations are sitting on huge natural resources, but they won't exploit them, they won't work, they start companies that make a little profit and then become totally corrupt and fail. Not all of them want that, many move away and are very successful. One of the bankers I deal with is very proud of his native heritage and heartbroken at what his tribe has become, he moved away so his children would grow up around white people and learn to be successful. His words, not mine. Honestly I think government money is the problem and I believe it could be deliberate corruption of the tribes to keep them weak and dependant. Same thing they did with blacks in the cities and are trying to do with Mexicans and other immigrants. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt Longmire Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 So we will be having a 'special election' to replace Young. In June will be a primary with that stupid ranked choice voting. Hardly anyone here understands at all how that **** works. It's going to be a cluster **** that I am certain will benefit the democrats. In August during our normal primary (once again 'ranked choice') we will supposedly select the winner. Thennnnn a few months later, November maybe, we have the regular election. Youngs replacement will be on ALL those ballots. All ranked choice. We already have candidates declaring themselves on both sets of ballots. It's going to be a mees. So far I'm not seeing anyone I would call a true conservative running. One so called republican is Begich who comes from a long family line of democrats. I suspect he is going to be a rino at best. Stay tuned. We should have that Mayhem guy narrate this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt Longmire Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 The winner of the first primary and regular election is to only serve out the remainder of Don's term which ends in January. The same person supposedly can't hold both positions, the remainder and the new term, but several have signed up for both elections. It is going to be weird to say the least. Seems like with only 6 months left in Don Young's term, the special election is a moot point and should be waived. But NO. The **** show must continue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt Longmire Posted March 23, 2022 Author Share Posted March 23, 2022 Oh, and there is going to be ballot shortages. That's already been in the news. Probably because the democrats have picked up as many ballots as they can to stuff the ballot boxes. Mules. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hook Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I just sent him an email the day before he died about him supporting sending billions to secure ukraines border and nothing for our border. And his bullshit wanting to send jets to close the airspace. I honestly don’t have any respect for any damn politician anymore. I agree Walt this new voting system is bullshit. Them ******* dems will cheat some how. I seen somebody asked palin if she would take his job. She said she would be interested. Don’t know if I can trust anymore either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
