About 560,000 voters will receive ballots for Alaska's first-ever statewide by-mail election.
Though ballots will have already been mailed, the division will send a second ballot to the updated address, Fenumiai said. Officials will be tracking both ballots to prevent double voting, she said.
The online registry lists whether a ballot has been sent to a particular voter and whether that voter’s ballot has been received by the Division of Elections. Fenumiai said that in the coming days, the division will be joining BallotTrax, a system that allows voters to get text, email and phone alerts when their ballot has been received by the division. Information will be posted on the division’s website when available, she said.
Elections officials will be posting incremental updates on the number of ballots received before Election Day, she said. The first results will be posted on the evening of June 11, and the final results will be available June 21, with final review and certification expected by June 24.Anchorage Daily News is our partner in Anchorage.
