Alaska’s Mistake Approving Ranked Choice Voting

Wall Street Journal Opinion is drawing roughly a million views a day, about ten times its usual daily audience. But the jump is much larger than the audiences for its newest uploads, which are still in the hundreds or low thousands. It is not clear which videos are driving the increase.

The channel's recent election commentary puts Alaska under particular scrutiny. In "Alaska's Mistake Approving Ranked Choice Voting," a Potomac Watch excerpt, Kim Strassel argues that the state was wrong to adopt the system. Another excerpt turns to Maine: Kyle Peterson describes Susan Collins as a Senate survivor who could withstand a challenge from Troy Jackson.

There is a quieter subject among those political arguments. "The Dangerous Decline of Reading / Free Ex" presents Lauren Stoneman's case that reading deserves the time and effort it demands. On a channel busy weighing elections and candidates, that upload asks viewers to consider a different kind of commitment.
