Alaska has elected its first woman governor! Congratulations to Sarah Palin.

Alaska has returned quirky, smirky, Don (Young) to Congress. (sigh!)

Just another day in Alaska politics.

A better than 2 million dollar campaign put on by “big oil” against an initiative succeeded as that iniative went down in flames.

An iniative that limits state legislative sessions to ninety days will end up costing us a lot of money in the long run (in governor-called special elections) was passed – surprisingly.

Not all of “my” candidates succeeded. And not all of my wishes on initiatives. The one judge who needed to be ousted for sure was. The others remain and that may or may not be a good thing.

Like I said – just another day in Alaska politics. We are nothing if not political animals up here. We likes our politicizers, we do. Yup – yup – yup.

How’d it turn out in your neck of the woods?
