Alaska's election has entered its final stage, after ballot counting concluded Wednesday. The results aren't finalized until a state review board completes its work, which is set to occur by the end of the month.

The narrow vote to keep RCV in Alaska is great news for Lisa Murkowski but didn’t save Mary Peltola. Meanwhile, RCV lost in five other states.

The G.O.P. united behind Nick Begich III, the conservative son of a prominent liberal Alaska political family, to beat Representative Mary Peltola, a Democrat.

The historic increase in representation of women came in Alaska even as voters did not reelect U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola, the first woman and first Alaska Native person to represent the state in the U.S. House. Peltola was voted out in favor of Republican Nick Begich III.

Republican Nick Begich III has won Alaska's sole U.S. House seat, flipping it from Democratic to Republican control. Results of the race posted Wednesday showed Begich defeating Democratic incumbent Rep.

With 50.1 percent of the final tally, Alaskans voted to preserve a system that allows voters more choice in how they vote, and who they vote for.

A final ballot count by Alaska’s election workers on Wednesday cemented the narrow lead for supporters of Alaska’s ranked choice voting and open primary system, who sought to defeat a ballot measure that would have done away with the state’s new voting process.

After ranked choice tabulation on Wednesday, Begich had 51.3% of the vote to incumbent U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola’s 48.7%.

Alaska’s open primary and ranked choice voting system survived, while Republican U.S. House candidate Nick Begich defeated Democratic Rep. Mary Peltola, according to the unofficial results released on Wednesday.

Alaska retained ranked choice voting after residents defeated a ballot measure to repeal the reform system by a close margin, according to state elections officials. Unofficial results show Alaskans voted 50.

Nick Begich III, from one of the state's best-known Democratic political families, has ousted Rep. Mary Peltola, who became the first Alaska Native in Congress in 2022.
