Early voting in Alaska is off to a fast start and is on pace for a record, figures show

On Monday, Republican U.S. House candidate Nick Begich urged supporters to vote early and lock in their votes.

He followed his own advice this week, joining his wife and 19,999 other Alaskans who voted at the state’s early voting locations through Thursday, according to figures published Friday by the Alaska Division of Elections.

The pace of early voting on Monday and Tuesday — the first two days of early voting in the state — was faster than it was in 2020 or 2022, division director Carol Beecher said by email.

On Monday and Tuesday, 9,882 Alaskans presented their IDs and voted in person at early voting sites. During the first two days of early voting in 2022, 5,774 Alaskans voted early. In 2020, 7,592 did.
