Super big results roll in for Super Tuesday: Live blogging, with Trump in nearly clean sweep

1. Just voted in palmer half hour in line, good turn out, gives me hope!!!!

2. As the sun sets on Nikki’s political career. And not a moment too soon.

   Next stop: MSNBC?

3. This should have been organized much better – who was in charge of this? Wouldn’t be surprised if quite a few people give up waiting and walk away. That’s really shameful!
   Pintail Rd voter

   • Yes. Not enough locations.
     Not enough volunteers? … nonsense.
     They didn’t ask me & I have worked polls for many years.
     We all should have gotten a flyer w/ our district # on it & a place to go.
     And more poles!

     • It looks like there were enough volunteers for Palmer and Wasilla, just not everywhere else! Should have asked volunteers – people that volunteered – if they would be willing to run the polling in a different area.

   • Not that it really matters if they voted or not, this is just who Alaska will get behind.

     We all know President Trump will get the nomination here.

4. I understand this poll is being done by volunteers, but the short hours(3-8) with which to vote are not conducive to allowing all who want to do so actually be able to. I showed up at Wasilla Senior Center at 4. It was packed. A long line out the door. Parking was ridiculous. I left and am not returning as with chronic illness I just don’t have the stamina. Also, anyone who works a shift which occurs at this time(like my daughter) is unable to get there at a time away from her job. That’s two votes not gotten today.

5. Why didn’t any info get out about a change of venue for Palmer??? I know they have to plan locations in advance, but the Palmer Library is currently under construction due to a roof collapse last winter. The fb outage didn’t help any…but info about moving the location could have been circulating on social media many days if not weeks in advance and NADA! I called the Div of Elections only to be told I had to call Repub HQ. I called…no answer. Waited a bit and called again only to get a message that the mailbox was full. Goodbye. Click. So I guess I’m not voting. Wonder how many others in Palmer not voting?????? Very poorly managed in my view.

   • I was thinking CNN what a scum Ryno.

   • I Kathy I actually used my gps to locate the place in Palmer a town I grew up in and it took me 3 times to AARLF office 😆 to the north of the Palmer library which is 1/2 caved in. I finally called ron Johnson to learn it was at the depot. Good grief. Anyway go trump.

6. Whoever the Einstein is who decided the voting places should only be open from 3 tp 8, should be fired.
   What a fiasco.
   I tried to vote in Wasilla at the Wasilla Senior Center.
   Three of is rode there together at 11:00a.m. only to discover that we weren’t allowed to vote until 3:00 p.m.
   So after 3:00 I drove there again for the second time, all the way from Big Lake, only to discover that this time I could not even get off of KGB road, because the lines of cars stretched all the way from the Senior Center the full length of Century Circle, all the way from there down Riley Ave into the intersection of Riley and KBB Rd.
   I could not even get off of Riley and begin waiting in the line of cars wending their way to the voting place.
   I gave up there, and waited two traffic light cycles simply to fight my way through the intersection and back to home.
   There is no excuse for such poor planning. It was a fiasco, and one can only wonder how many other were not able to vote…..

7. Herding cattle! In and out! Regardless! Cattle gate started at 3:00 pm! lol no can’t be normal 7 am through day! I know who I want! Happy voting! Go President Trump:)

8. We stood in line for an Hour in the wind in Wasilla,Not A very well organized plan to have that many people at the Senior Center! Should of had it at the Menard Center where there is a bigger parking area and more room to get people inside out of the weather

9. Alaska Public Media reported yesterday that the results would be share on social sites on the 5th and final results would come in on March 11th. Here we go again…probably the only state that will report its final results a year later – OK, that was an exaggeration. But, really? A week later we’ll know the results? Anyone want to start betting now on who wins since there is time to pad the results?

10. Honestly, I believe that this was all poorly organized for one reason – because there is sabotage within the republican party and certain individuals want Nikki Haley to win. Take for instance, Glenda Ledford, City of Wasilla Mayor. She was selected as part of Nikki Haley’s campaign team ( earlier article on this website). Guess who was working at the Wasilla location? Mayor Leford! I feel like this is a conflict of interest and she should not have been allowed to be working at the polling place since she is working on Nikki Haley’s campaign team. Additionally, the ballots were printed on copier paper – how hard would it have been between January and today to remake the ballots with the correct candidates on them? Why do Alaskans put up with inferior work ethics and quality from our republican party?
    Why does the left and the liberals feel that they can just keep steam rolling over us? I am glad that there were a few honest people working in the Wasilla location who will say something if they see things happening that are not right.

11. Hopefully Nikki Haley disappears into obscurity for eternity. What a scum she turned out to be. It proves they are all for sale. What do you suppose larry fink paid her to try to throw this election off track. Go trump. Keep you body guards close and stay on point. America needs you

12. Was happy to see the turn-out, and yet, AP is reporting it as less than 10,000.

    It was a pleasure to see young people voting, too. People of all ages need to be involved.

13. March 5th at 23:09 Ramaswamy has a running balance of 45 votes total in Alaska according to the Alaskan Republican live polling results. Haha My timing for looking at this is perfect! Go Trump!

14. RCP is reporting Alaska is 96% tallied, with Trump ahead of Haley, 87.6% to 12%. I suppose some votes went to Vivek. Anyway, 9243 to 1266.

15. Turnout this time around was about half what it was in 2016. Looks like ARP Chair Ann Brown intentionally suppressed Republican turnout in an attempt to suppress Trump support in the party probably to assist Lisa in not looking like a fool. She cannot be gone soon enough. Cheers –

    • Really? Stupid unsupported statement – you’re better than that friend.
      I have NEVER, in my 50 years of voting, seen such enthusiasm or such turn out in any election. I am greatly encouraged.

      • Rich, you have NEVER seen such enthusiasm? You must have missed the 2016 Presidential election! I think that the sky spraying got heavier after the 2016 elections to make people apathetic. 2020 was not as big of a turn out. Anchorage must be getting hit by heavier fluoridation in their drinking water, in addition to the heavier sky spraying because their participation has been really apathetic.
