    The question would be set up as a recall - should Alaska adopt a plan ?
    yes or no
    the next part of the question simply lists Plan A ,  Plan B,  and Neither
    Plan as candidates and a vote for one -
    no Yes or no option - Because if you vote yes - you need to pick Plan A,
    Plan B, or Neither Plan which would cover the No vote you are looking for on
    the Plans and Gems could count the votes correctly -
    A no vote to the question - would invalidate any further choices should the
    elector pick no and Plan A, B, or Neither.
    This would seem to give you the results and options to the voter that Alaska
    seems to want

    to vote on question 2.  Because it makes no sense for the voter to say they
    don't want a long range fiscal plan

    Our legislature did not reach a resolution about this issue during the
    regular session, which ended last night at midnight.  So, the governor has
    called them back into special session today.
