After an intense and expensive campaign season, the election is finally over…..isn’t it?
Alaska took taking a long time to count absentee and mail ballots, but as the final vote tally emerged, we have a clearer picture of what Alaskans want for the future of the state.
Why did votes split the way they did? Will lawmakers be able to make good on campaign promises during the next legislative session? How are the results in federal races likely to affect Alaska’s political future? We’re discussing election results on Talk of Alaska.
