Alaska, typically a red state, will have three Electoral College votes contributing to the presidential race. The presidential election winner must earn 270 Electoral College votes to assume office. Early voting in Alaska started on Oct. 21, and polls for in-person voting will be open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday.
On the line is control of both legislative chambers, which can have a significant impact on the types of bills that become law and how the Legislature works with Gov. Mike Dunleavy.
GOP challenger Nick Begich led in first round of the state’s unusual ranked choice balloting, but was unable to get a majority, meaning another tabulation will be required.
