Alaska’s Senate race remains uncalled more than a week after Election Day, with former Democratic Rep. Mary Peltola leading Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK) by 5,800 votes as election officials continue counting absentee ballots and prepare for a ranked choice tabulation.
According to the Associated Press, 88% of the vote had been counted as of the latest reported tally. Peltola had 125,157 votes, or 49.2%, compared with Sullivan’s 119,357 votes, or 47%. Two other candidates, Republican Gerald Heikes and independent Daniel J. Sullivan Jr., had 5,490 and 4,199 votes, respectively.
