Show Notes
Alaskas open primary system, approved by voters in 2020, allows every voter to pick from all candidates in the primary, promoting bipartisan cooperation and reducing gridlock. However, a ballot measure this November threatens to revert to closed primaries and hidden money from out-of-state donors, potentially reigniting partisan battles. A diverse coalition is fighting to defend the current rules, arguing it keeps elections fair and the state running smoothly.
