This past Tuesday, Alaska Republicans lost a House seat during a special election, which was the first time it occurred since the year 1972. However, Mary Peltola (D-AK) didn’t win by having a majority of votes… in fact not even garnering close to half of the votes, but instead by only garnering around only 40% support of voters, compared to the Republicans who won a whopping 60% of the votes! Therefore, how did Republicans lose this seat while winning an overwhelming majority of the vote?
In reality, it was through an election system promoted by and implemented just two years ago through a joint effort of Democrats and RINO Republicans called ‘Rank-Choice Voting’! In fact, it was implemented by referendum just two short years ago in 2020! As a result, it has shifted a highly conservative state to a state that Democrats can now control, as well as gives them control over the election outcomes through political manuevering… thus nullifying voter desires!
Sadly, this is something that Missouri residents should be mindful of, as ‘ranked choice’ voting in Missouri was not only pushed, but promoted by Republican Governor Mike Parsons. Sadly, if this type of election system were to be implemented, one more domino would fall to the Demcorat’s goal of taking over America, and leading us ever-more close to a Socialist/Marxist nation!
Those of you who know me well, realize that I may be a Republican, but I am a Christian, a Conservative, and a Constitutionalist FIRST, and I will not stand for any political figure, regardless of their party, especially if they put political gain or motives above the best interests of our nation, our state, or ‘We the People’!
Missouri voters loudly and resoundingly rejected the Marxist policies of left-wing politicians in 2020, and we don’t need anyone from either Party trying to take away the voice of the Missouri voters by implementing ‘ranked choice voting’!
We already have a number of RINO’s in the great state of Missouri who are being exposed, but anyone who supports this type of anti-American voting system should be resoundingly voted out of office, in an effort to not only ‘Save Missouri’, but to ‘Save America’!
Balletopia reported that the ranked-choice voting system (RCV) is an electoral system in which voters rank candidates by preference on their ballots. If a candidate wins a majority of first-preference votes, he or she is declared the winner. If no candidate wins a majority of first-preference votes, the candidate with the fewest first-preference votes is eliminated. First-preference votes cast for the failed candidate are eliminated, lifting the second-preference choices indicated on those ballots. A new tally is conducted to determine whether any candidate has won a majority of the adjusted votes. The process is repeated until a candidate wins an outright majority.
Therefore, replacing our current voting system of one voter… one vote… and the candidate who wins a majority of the vote wins, it changes and creates a process that gives corrupt bureaucrats a chance to use various strategies that go around the voters, and win an election and secure their power with only a small fraction of the voters, rather than a majority!
The Gateway Pundit made a really great point, as they stated that this would give Demcorats a chance to permenantly control a solidly Repulican state like Missouri, so why would RINO Governor Parson support this?

Parson vs. Fair Elections
Of surpassing concern to Missourians is what comes after Parson. His hand-picked lieutenant governor, Mike Kehoe, gets along better with radical Democrats than with conservative Missouri state senators. And he expects to become Missouri’s next governor by proclamation.
Parson, Kehoe, and several legislative leaders are pushing a change to Missouri elections to replace traditional elections with the “rank choice” process. This is a scam. Party rats use this scam to guarantee “moderate” Republicans win all the big races. Here’s how it works, via the Kansas City Star:
Better Elections is a shady organization with a tiny cyber footprint. Its treasurer in Missouri, Dave Roland, formerly of the Show-Me Institute, Rex Singquefiel’s joint. A search on OpenSecrets revealed no publicly available records of donors or funding for Better Elections.A group called Better Elections is pushing an initiative petition that would amend Missouri’s constitution to allow all voters to vote for any candidate in a combined primary.
The four candidates in the primary with the most votes would advance to the general election, regardless of party. Then in the general election, voters would be allowed to rank those four candidates from first choice to last — or just vote for their first choice.
Further, the Better Elections for Missouri website offers zero evidence that their Condorcet voting method would change anything. Zero evidence. They want the Show-Me State to take their word for it. “Trust me, I’m an honest man” would be a great tagline for the outfit.
The best argument against “Better Elections” is looking at who supports their scheme: the weakest Republican governor since Jay Nixon and the guy who wants to take his place.
No thanks.
Therefore, voters troughout not only Missouri, but Conservative states throughout our great nation must advance cautiously, as to ensure that we do not enanger the very fabric of our nation, as radicals try to dissolve the power of representative democracty, as they seek to create a nation that is no longer one of the people… by the people… or for the people, not to even mention their effort to deminsh and destroy the idea of ‘one nation, under God’!
Therefore, as a Christian and Constitutional Conservative, I will fervently fight to defend against any system that dimenishes the ‘Voice of the People, including such things like ‘rank-choice voting’!
