We’re Still Counting…Moose Part 2.
With rank choice voting and absentee ballots, the earliest Alaska will know who the governor, senator, and congressman will be is November 18th. In the meantime, you’ll have to admit, Alaska has the best “ I Voted” stickers in the country. And if you’re wondering, no, I did not vote 6 times. A very generous poll …

Fifty years later, we are celebrating the semiquincentennial of being independent. It’s still a big deal. Fifty years from now will be the tricentennial. I’ll be 113 years old …
