The Alaska Division of Elections is a state government agency responsible for administering and overseeing all state and federal elections in Alaska. Established under the Alaska Department of State, the division maintains voter registration records, conducts elections, and ensures compliance with state and federal election laws, including the Alaska Election Code. The division manages several key electoral functions, including maintaining the state’s voter registration database, certifying election results, and implementing Alaska’s unique ranked choice voting system, which was adopted in 2020. It also oversees ballot measure processes, candidate filings, and campaign finance disclosure requirements. Operating through four regional offices located in Juneau, Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Nome, the Division of Elections serves Alaska’s diverse population across its vast geographic area. The agency is responsible for training election workers, establishing polling locations, and providing voter education materials in multiple languages, including several Alaska Native languages. The division also maintains the state’s election security protocols and implements various measures to ensure election integrity, including signature verification for mail-in ballots and post-election audits. As the official election authority in Alaska, it works closely with local governments, tribal organizations, and federal agencies to conduct secure and accessible elections.
