Anyone who thinks we don't need a more transparent election process here in Alaska because their candidate is in the lead is a pathetic partisan hack.

All camps -- Stevens and Begich in the Senate race, and Don Young and Ethan Berkowitz in one of the House races with the strangest results -- are still at work. It feels like 2000 Bush-Gore around here.

Alaska needs an election autopsy STAT. This year's turnout was smaller than the election of 2004 by 6.1%. I would have to smoke more than salmon to believe that Alaska, with Palin on the ballot, decided to sit this one out.

We're supposed to believe that overall participation decreased by 11%. This historic election both nationally and for Alaska had the lowest Alaska turnout for a presidential race ever!?! Something stinks.

When the FBI arrived in 2006 brandishing warrants, the official Democratic Party line was: "It's a sad day for Alaska." But many of us could barely contain our glee. We'd been screaming about corruption forever.

Alaska is going to be very close this year. This stems from Republican office-holders apparently trying to take the "first in political corruption" award away from Louisiana.
