They have RCV in Alaska now - that means you rank the candidates 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.
If nobody gets 50.01% in #1 rankings, it goes to an instant runoff where the percentages for #2 are calculated.
Here's the thing - if this Tshibaka woman doesn't get 50.01%, Murkowsky is guaranteed to get another term.
Because the Dems will rank Murky as #2, and the Republicans will also likely do the same. So if on the first round nobody gets it, the second round Murky will win in a landslide since both Dems + Reps all ranked her as their #2 choice.
We have to make absolutely sure that there's ONE MAGA challenger and that we do not split the votes. All Republicans there should vote for Tshibaka as their #1 choice and rank the Libertarian candidate as #2, and probably Murky as #3, and Dem candidate as last. You should tell Dem friends to rank the Libertarian as #2 as well, if they'll listen. That way Murkowsky is blocked from getting a 4th term without fail.
Also, primarying incumbents is hard so I don't expect it to be easy, but it is possible. See Eric Cantor in 2014. The House Majority Leader once himself got primaried.

Do you have to rank all of them? In some countries with RCV, not ranking people you dislike is better than ranking them lowly.
