Analysis suggests ranked choice voting may benefit Senator Dan Sullivan
Original: Ranked choice voting may help Republican US Sen. Dan Sullivan, analysis finds
An analysis by the Alaska Beacon finds that ranked choice voting may help Republican US Senator Dan Sullivan of Alaska. The finding runs counter to expectations that the voting system favors moderates or Democrats, since Sullivan is a Republican incumbent. The report is drawing attention amid ongoing debate over Alaska's ranked choice system, which was adopted by statewide ballot measure and remains politically contested.
Why now: Debate over Alaska's ranked choice voting system is active, and any evidence it might aid a Republican incumbent is notable.
