If you don't understand the system, don't complain about it. Accept it.

 Former Alaska Governor and Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin, as you might know, lost a special election to fill a vacant Senate seat from her state. So, of course, she's whining about it because of the system used to determine the winner, referred to as ranked choice.

Voters are initially asked to rank the candidates in order of preference. In the final vote, Palin finished 2nd behind the winner, a Democrat. If only Governor Grizzly remembered how "reality" competition shows like Survivor, for example, work. It's a similar principle, but without the manufactured drama, only in this case, Palin decided to create some drama to renew her 15 minutes of fame.

She shredded the ranked choice formula, which was also tested in Maine four years ago, whining that it was "cockamamie", or, unfair. The message is clear, dim bulb. You cast your lot with swine like Donald Trump, the smarter Republicans, and most of the people of Alaska, will reject you, and they did. If you took the time to Google "ranked choice" before the process began, I'd venture to guess you'd get a better understanding of how this works. 

May you be strapped to a chair and forced to binge the entire run of Northern Exposure until Christmas.
