Operation Alaska Chaos

How much do I love this?  A lot.

Apparently some folks in Alaska, angry that the Supreme Court ordered that write-in candidate names must be provided on a list to voters in polling places, have decided to bulk up the write-in list a bit.  This ruling came about as Lisa Murkowski desperately tries to keep her job after losing to Joe Miller in the primary.

It's pretty easy to sign up as a write-in Senate candidate:

The Anchorage office received 56 Senate write-in applications -- in person or by fax -- in just 45 minutes, said election clerk Raymond McAndrews at 5 p.m.

Hopefully when those lists are handed out there will be lots and lots of names to choose from.

Should Murkowski somehow manage to win this thing I'll be really ticked if the GOP doesn't strip her of her committee assignments and seniority. She will not go to Washington as a Republican, and she shouldn't be granted the perks of being a Republican even if she chooses to caucus with them.

UPDATE:  153 Alaskans answered the call and registered as write-in candidates.
