You are quite wrong, sir. The turnout in the November 2014 election was the highest since 1994, 56%, whereas nationally there was a record low in the same election. Some singular ballot item must have driven Alaskans to the polls in record numbers. Hmmm, wonder what that was? And its not about an "anything goes society", Richard, its about freedom of individual will, common sense and ending longstanding hypocrisy.  Hop on the freedom train, man, its way better than standing there looking like a sad case!! Cheer up, hombre!
