      Now, just what is it about Alaska and Libertarians? Ed Clark is the 2nd straight Libertarian candidate
      (after Roger MacBride in 1976) to earn all of their Electoral Points from our 49th state. However, he
      could not do better than 2.70% of the popular vote count in any other state, so his 584 Electoral Point
      Alaska total was all he had to show for himself.
