No, they aren't. They are simply now victims of a rigged election system ("ranked choice voting"). It is a system that favors Demonkkkrats and RINOs instead of who the people of Alaska actually want to represent them.
It is a system meant to keep people like Murkowski in office, even though both Democrats and Republicans in Alaska don't want her as their representative, even if that means allowing Demonkkkrats to win other races (such as this one) via the splitting of Republican votes.
The system is not rigged for any particular party that is fucking ignorant. It allows 2 democrats to be on the ballot just as it allows 2 republicans to be on the ballot. It can just as easily split the democratic vote as it can the republican vote.
