Alaska has been moving more and more democratic over the past decade or so but has been largely under most people’s radar

Democrats won Alaska’s at large house seat in 2022. There was also recently a major flip in the Fairbanks Alaska borough earlier this week a democrat won the mayor race despite it voting R+15 in 2020. Though Alaska does split their vote more than other states

Polling is rather limited in Alaska which makes it harder to tell exactly how things are going on for the presidental race. Some put Harris within striking distance. It’s possible for it to end up flipping this cycle or in the near future

    I’m one Alaskan that will be voting Harris, but this state seems very likely to go Trump. Things are changing at the local level but we still have a lot of dumb fucks out in the middle of nowhere who wants to go back to the dark ages
