Time To Get Rid of Ranked Choice Voting For Good !
Bethany Marcum is on the show today talking about the 2nd effort to repeal the highly political and disturbingly complicated ranked choice voting method that Alaskans approved in 2020 after millions of dollars of dark outside funds poured into the state to confuse voters.
The former head of Alaska Policy Forum and Americans for Prosperity in Alaska, Marcum has extensive political capabilities and experience having served as legislative aide for then-Sen. Mike Dunleavy, was appointed by Gov. Dunleavy to serve on the Alaska Redistricting Board and was a delegate to the Republican National Convention from Alaska.
An avid hunter, Marcum is also a master sergeant in the Alaska Air National Guard and has worked in the corporate world for several years as a business systems analyst for AlaskaUSA Federal Credit Union and at MAC Tel.
In her new role leading up the effort to repeal ranked choice voting, CLICK HERE for more info on that group, Marcum will be engaged with a battle-tested electorate that nearly shot down RCV the first time it was challenged losing only by a few hundred votes despite being outspent $15 million to $150,000.
Let's get it done this time.
I hope you can tune in.
