Primary in Alaska today, the 2nd using the state's new top-4/ranked-choice voting system. We did some research in 2022 on Alaska voters first time using the system and generally most though not all voters like it. x.com/christiangrose…

One dirty little secret about Ballot Measure 2 that supporters don’t want you to know? It’s not a return to the prior election system, it’s way worse… If passed, not only will we have closed party primaries again, the parties could shut out *ALL* other voters… 1/2 #akleg

Julio Homer. Fireworks. In the playoff hunt. That’s a Good Friday night. #TridentsUp go Mariners!

To be clear, the attempt to repeal open primaries in Alaska is not because it didn't work in 2022. It's because it worked exceptionally well –– giving voters a lot more voice, choice, and power. Hence why party insiders are trying desperately to take that power back.

Here’s the proof: Ballot Measure 2 *specifically* gives political parties the power to ban Nonpartisans & Undeclareds from voting in primary elections. If state-funded elections in which 60% of Alaskans *can’t vote* sound bad to you, Vote NO on 2! #akleg adn.com/politics/2024/…

Admiral Tom Barrett explains why Alaskans should vote NO on 2. OPINION: Protect voting rights and liberty by voting no on Ballot Measure 2 - Anchorage Daily News #akleg #akelect adn.com/opinions/2024/…

🔑quote: “[With closed primaries, legislators’] goal was to win; not govern. Hard decisions that required statesmanship were punished.” OPINION: Alaska’s old primary system stifled governance. We shouldn’t go back to it. #akleg #akelect #VoteNoOn2AK adn.com/opinions/2024/…

Dare greatly. BM1–raising the minimum wage and protecting workers = PASSED ✅ BM2–seeking to repeal Open Primaries & Ranked-Choice Voting = DEFEATED ❌ #akleg #akelect

Same, Coach.

Unbelievably fun time at the @seahawks win over the Arizona Cardinals with jason for Selena Hopkins-Kendall ‘s birthday trip! Good times, great friends, and #GoHawks #Seahawks

Big high five to Seattle Mariners for an amazing Opening Week warm up event. Got the kids (and me!) pumped for the start of the season. Scored swag and got to meet future stars. Plus the TRIDENT! #TridentsUp

You can’t start #OpeningDay without Dave 💙

Every time I wear this shirt to a Mariners game, I bet my kids that I get at least 15 compliments. I’m up to 10 already tonight. A family whose little boy had the same shirt wanted to get a photo with me! It’s a classic. go Seattle Mariners #TridentsUp

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg. The beloved Cubs second baseman was a five-tool model of consistency in the 1980s and early ’90s, making 10 consecutive All-Star teams and winning 9 straight Gold Glove awards. On June 23, 1984, a national TV

8 year old me got a Ryne 1989 upper deck card and he quickly became my all time favorite player. He made me fall in love with baseball with his smooth glove, hard play, and class. A special place in my baseball heart forever. RIP Ryne.

“The Sandberg game”. RIP Ryno

RIP #RyneSandberg

After my dad (the biggest Ms fan I knew) died in Dec 2021, I stood at his funeral and opened with a story about being 14 years old, the Seattle Mariners and what hope felt like in 1995. Today and this season feels like that again. #TridentsUp

I was 20 years old when this happened last. In 2001, three college buddies drove from Boise, ID to Seattle to watch win 116. We got the cheapest tickets, booed AROD and watched a 1-0 victory. 24 years later we still text about the Seattle Mariners . Can’t wait for October! #TridentsUp
