Alaska is unique in having an overwhelming percentage of registered voters undeclared or independent. This is an undeniable statement of dissatisfaction with &ldquo;party politics.&rdquo; In fact, 63% of Americans express not too much or no confidence in the future of the U.S. political system. RCV is a good platform for making campaigning more civil, less partisan, and will create a lasting and sustainable economic environment in the state by continuing to give Alaskans a chance to vote for their beliefs, and to elect leaders who are interested in stable governance to promote all of our businesses."}
