In the Nov. 8 general election, Haines townsite voters favored Democrat Rep. Mary Peltola, Republican U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski and incumbent GOP Gov. Michael Dunleavy.
Peltola previously won an August special election against Republican candidates Sarah Palin and Nick Begich to serve out the term of the late Don Young, who died in March. She is leading in early first-choice returns in Tuesday’s ranked choice election for Alaska’s only House seat, over Begich and Palin.
