US Politics Daily@uspoliticsdailyDemocrat Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins has pulled further ahead in Alaska's governor race as more ballots are counted. The former Sitka lawmaker has 49.9% of the vote so far, ahead of three Republicans.
Bernadette Wilson is second at 28.8%, and preliminary ranked-choice data suggests she won't be able to move past him. His campaign projects he will win a majority of first-choice votes once everything is counted, which would avoid a ranked-choice tally.
Ballot Measure 2, which sought to repeal the state's open primaries and ranked-choice general elections, looks set to fail with 52.6% against.
