Tuesday is Alaska’s primary election, but the biggest races will wait until November
Three candidates advanced to Alaska's general election to represent the state's At-Large Congressional District on Tuesday, according to a call by the Associated Press.
Alaska has a non-partisan, ranked-choice primary system that selects the four candidates with the most votes, regardless of party, to proceed to the general election.
Tuesday's primary saw 12 candidates vying for a position in the top four, including incumbent Rep. Mary Peltola, D-Ala., who advanced to the general election with 50.7% of the vote.
Republican Nick Begich, who ran for the seat against Peltola in 2022, finished in 2nd place with 26.8%.
Republican Lt. Gov. Nancy Dahlstrom, who was endorsed by former President Trump, was the number three candidate with 19.9% of the votes in the Last Frontier primary.

The Associated Press didn't make a call on the 4th place finisher. None of the remaining candidates broke the 1% mark.
The race also saw David Ambrose, Samuel Claesson, Lady Donna Dutchess, Richard Grayson, Eric Hafner, Gerald Heikes, John Wayne Howe, Richard Mayers, and Matthew Salisbury vying for the seat.
