Via The Anchorage Daily News:
New York Times reporter William Yardley was in Girdwood this morning as the Murkowski family showed up at the poll to, presumably, write in the incumbent’s name on their ballots. First, Sen. Lisa Murkowski left her ID in the car and sent her son to retrieve it; then, as they voted, Murkowski’s husband, Verne Martell, asked from his booth, “Hon, how do you spell your last name?”
His question sounds like electioneering within 200 feet of a polling place (a crime in Alaska) to me.
If she answered, that's "Book 'em" territory.
