A ballot measure that would repeal Alaska’s ranked choice voting and open primary system has very narrowly failed, according to final unofficial results released Wednesday by the Division of Elections.

The final margin for Ballot Measure 2, pending certification, is 664 out of 340,110 votes, with “No” outpacing “Yes” 50.1% to 49.9%.

    I don’t think that is a call out. Pretty sure it supports the statement. They said they were an advocate for repeal. Repeal would mean voting yes on the ballot measure. So no on 2 having 14 mil was against repeal and that’s supporting their statement.

      You’re right, I misread it. I’ve deleted the comment to avoid misleading anyone else.
