Alaska elections officials are set to release additional election results on Tuesday from tens of thousands of voters, which could shape the results of several tight races, including Alaska's U.S. House race.

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.

Alaska voters were deciding a hard-fought race for the state’s only U.S. House seat that could help decide control of that chamber

Begich, an entrepreneur who lives in Chugiak, is a Republican from a prominent Democratic family. If his lead holds, he’ll win the seat once held by his grandfather. Congressman Nick Begich, D-Alaska, was campaigning for reelection in 1972 when his chartered plane disappeared enroute to Juneau.

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.

While final results and tabulation are still a few weeks away, preliminary election results can tell us a lot about the future of ranked choice voting, the minimum wage, and the makeup of the 2025 legislature.
