Elon Musk is trying to help put an end to ‘ranked choice’ voting in Alaska and he is putting his money where his mouth is.
Ranked choice voting is a scam used in Alaska and other places that always seems to favor the candidates that the left wants. A similar type of system was used in the Los Angeles mayoral race to push Spencer Pratt out of the election.
Taking this on is right up Elon Musk’s alley.
The Anchorage Daily News reports:
Tech billionaire Elon Musk has given $1.5 million to a group supporting the repeal of Alaska’s voting system, according to a report filed with the state Friday.
Ballot Measure 2, which will appear on the November ballot, seeks to repeal Alaska’s ranked choice voting method, along with open primaries and campaign finance laws that were themselves adopted by ballot measure in 2020.
Musk gave $1.5 million last month to the Aurora Action Network, a Wisconsin-based political action committee that has already collected contributions from numerous billionaire megadonors, including Dick Uihlein, Jeff Yass, Timothy Mellon and Hilcorp owner Jeffery Hildebrand. Aurora Action Network then gave the repeal campaign $1 million in late July.
Musk’s contribution, which make up a sizable share of the repeal campaign’s fundraising, could prove pivotal for the future of Alaska’s elections.
The ballot measure would revert Alaska to closed partisan primaries and pick-one general elections. It would also eliminate campaign finance laws that enable Alaska voters to know when big spenders like Musk give money to Alaska campaigns.
A group that opposes the ballot measure — and supports the state’s current voting system — continues to have a cash advantage, having raised over $5 million to support its campaign, also from Outside megadonors.
Ranked choice voting is how Lisa Murkowski stays in power.

Ending ranked choice voting would be good for Alaska and good for the country.
