Rating Alaska's sitting legislators
The 2021 legislative session is trundling to a conclusion amid warnings of government shutdowns and pleas for them to finally, perhaps, maybe, start to think of not kicking the can down the road. This year's highlights include... um... a very lame party in the gym, the Caucus of Equals, a tasteless joke or two, way too many amendments and, of course, Eagle River Republican Sen. Lora Reinbold.
We're putting together our fourth comprehensive ranking of Alaska's sitting legislators and need your totally scientific and totally unbiased help. Below, we've got all 60 legislators and need you to rate them based on their intelligence, ethics and effectiveness. There's also some room, if you so choose, to suggest a nickname and the best will be included in the final results (c'mon, guys, step you your game! Last year's were... not great!). Everything from your responses to your comments will remain anonymous from the survey to the final post.
You can find the results of the previous rankings here: 2020, 2019 and 2018.
