Another prohibitionist politician has been ousted by voters:
From CBS NEWS [2]:
Republican Gov. Frank Murkowski, stung by accusations of arrogance and stubbornness, lost his bid for a second term Tuesday after polling last in a three-way GOP primary.
Arrogant and Stubborn indeed, Murkowski has repeatedly disregarded Alaskan Supreme Court precedent [3], and public opinion [4], in his effort to re-criminalize private marijuana possession in his state.
We’ve reported on Murkowski several times [5], and we look forward to never mentioning his name again.
