Important local election yesterday for Fairbanks Alaska area. 3 seats on a 9 seat borough assembly and 3 seats on school board. I think there are 6 seats total for school board.
Union voters turned out en mass. Conservatives barely showed up. The big government. union folks now control the assembly. Property taxes soon to rise. Climate change restrictions coming!
School board now controlled by teacher unions. Katie bar the door! Cost of everything going up. Gonna be some big increases in teacher pay next round of contract talks!

Liberals have beaten us in about everything that counts. They've taken over education, the media, and the judiciary. They excel at getting the vote out by any means, legal or not.

It's been happening for decades. The whole time too many conservatives do nothing but whine about it.


Eh...wot?

If you can’t get away from this BS in Alaska we are screwed it sounds like it’s time to go remote then come back and rebuild after they burn it all down with the woke nonsense.

Conservatives just want to be left alone and don't really want to get involed; we have a life.

On the other hand, leftist follow the religion of Marxism, and are on a mission.

A high percentage of people who vote democrat make their entire livings off of voting to take money from those who work and have it given to themselves. The few days they vote to enrich themselves, at other people's expense, is the only work they do.

You're right waggler. Many formerly conservative countries throughout the world and throughout history have been taken over by liberals. IMO it is inevitable for the reasons you mentioned.

PF, polls here are open 6:00 AM and close at 9:00 PM. I work a lot of hours but not that many. I don't have to take off of work to vote. I even find a way when I'm working out-of-state.



Eh...wot?

Color me surprised. Alaska is turning blue just look at the statistics for Alaska and you can see how their policies are destroying our state. Fairbanks is just a mini san fran and I avoid fairbanks as much as possible.

The future belongs to those who show up.

Theres a myth that goes around that conservatives win in low turnout elections. We generally do better in high turnout, 2016 and 2020 notwithstanding.

Apathy and excuses is how we get beat in elections. There is such a thing as absentee voting.

Funny thing about that the last election they moved my polling place a few months befor 30 m8ns on was further away. I still made it to vote and drove a bl8nd family member an hour away to his polling place actually all 3 in that county because non knew what place he had to go and though the man was 60 he had never voted.
The results didn't matter.

Keep living in the delusion that your vote counts and you hav3 a say in the government and we will get them next time. It's all controlled opposition s9 you believe you have representation. That belief keeps you complying with the system and under control. If you/the people don't believe they have a say then there is noncompliance and revolutions. So the puppet masters give you the illusion you have a say. Don't believe it that's your choice but tell me what actually got done Trumps first 2 years when the Republicans had all 3 branches. Nothing good on the 2nd.

Got a lot of federal judges is about all i can think of positive. Obama care didn't get repealed many cam0ained 9n that and other th8ngs the did nothing on when they had no. excuses. Why is that. Couldn't be becuse they honestly don't want to do anything about it and they like it as it I'd. We always move left regardless of the letter by the name. It's just slower when it's an R. Funny we never move right jus slow the movement to the left when the R are in charge.
Its the conclusion i have come to unless you can Change my mind ?


Lug nut. Some of us work 2.5 hours from home and 12 and 16 hr shifts. I'm glad you feel like your votes count. I have never missed an election but I won't go out of my way ever again to wast the time to vote in a rigged game.

Build the wall around every major metropolitan area, and I'd be fine!

I vote in every election, but I have no illusions that it matters here, at least I can legitimately complain when things go south...

If you dont vote you have zero credibility when complaining about elections or govts elected.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
