It may be an election where every vote counts, and so far the count is up slightly from three years ago in the Anchorage municipal election.
By Friday, 36,569 ballots had been received at the Anchorage election center. That compares to 34,149 on the same date, four days before the election ended in 2021.
The conservative-leaning voters have been coming in stronger, with an aggregate of conservative voters’ ballots trending nearly 8% more than liberal ballots, according to an analysis of voter data by Must Read Alaska.
This bodes well for Mayor Dave Bronson’s reelection and possibly for one or more school board seats being flipped to members who won’t support radical ideological agendas being pushed in the Anchorage public schools.
