Commentary: The empty promises of Ballot Measure 2
Leman: I spent four years overseeing Alaska’s elections as lieutenant governor. During that time, as well as during my earlier years as a legislator, I developed a keen appreciation for how much our representative government depends on an election process that is simple, transparent, impartial and honest.

Its length alone challenges describing all its shortcomings.
