An Associated Press report says Alaskans were waiting on 4 November 2026 for results in the Senate race between Republican Dan Sullivan and Democrat Mary Peltola and an open governor's seat, with ranked tabulation possible and officials targeting 18 November to finish counting. The Justice Department, suing at Trump's direction to block certification if Sullivan loses, saw its case dismissed but appealed, while a repeal of Alaska's ranked vote system was too early to call.
