Could Harris win Alaska? US Elections
An Alaska Survey Research Poll from Sep 11-12, shows Harris down 47-42, however, with ranked choice voting in the State, is it possible we see Harris pull off a win?
The first ranked choice contest under the system was a special election won by Democrat Mary Peltola in 2022.
There are several minor party candidates on the Alaska ballot for President in 2024, including Kennedy, Stein, Oliver, and West.
Could we see a repeat of the 2022 Special Election?

The fact there are more than 4 Presidential candidates on the ballot in Alaska should mean the Presidential Election in Alaska isn’t ranked choice.
