Dan Sullivan, and independent gubernatorial candidate Meda DeWitt are gathered on the afternoon of Aug. 18, 2026, at the busy intersection of Northern Lights Boulevard and the Seward Highway.

The gap between the fifth and sixth-place finishers in Alaska’s 17-way governor race closed to fewer than 300 votes on Thursday as the Alaska Division of Elections published more results from Tuesday’s primary election.
As of noon Thursday, fifth-place finisher Treg Taylor had 9,775 votes and sixth-place finisher Click Bishop had 9,489.
Ordinarily, a change in order between fifth and sixth place doesn’t matter, because only the top four candidates advance to November’s general election.
But if one of the top four finishers withdraws from the race by Aug. 31, the fifth-place finisher will be promoted and advance to November.
Ahead of the primary, some candidates for governor said they were considering their options, depending on this week’s results.
Only one election day precinct remains uncounted — votes from Koliganek in southwest Alaska had not been reported by the end of Thursday — but thousands of absentee and early votes also remain unreported and could change the result.
Voting precincts for the villages of Kipnuk and Kwigillingok in southwest Alaska also reported no results, but those communities were almost entirely destroyed by Typhoon Merbok in 2025 and did not host polling sites.
Counting is expected to wrap up by Aug. 28, the deadline for mailed absentee ballots to reach the Division of Elections.
Democratic frontrunners Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins and Tom Begich, who are on track to finish first and second in the primary, have since issued statements implying that they will remain in the race. Third-place Republican finisher Bernadette Wilson has said she will remain in the race if she is the top Republican.
Fourth-place finisher Dave Bronson issued a statement Wednesday that said in part, “Once the final tabulation of early votes are reported next Tuesday and we have the full picture of where this race stands, our campaign will make the decision that best advances that goal and gives Republicans the strongest path to victory in November.”
In other races, the newly counted ballots confirmed existing trends. In the U.S. Senate race, Democratic challenger Mary Peltola has 48.1% of the vote, and incumbent Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan has 42.7%. In the No. 3 spot is Republican challenger Dan J. Sullivan of Petersburg, with 2.4%. The fourth spot is currently held by progressive Democrat David Leslie, with 1.1%.
If Leslie withdraws or if late-counted votes alter election-day trends, his spot would be taken by conservative Republican Gerald Heikes, who sat just 17 votes behind Leslie on Thursday.
In the U.S. House race, Republican Rep. Nick Begich III has 46.1% of the vote, ahead of independent challenger Bill Hill, with 30.9%.
Democratic challenger Matt Schultz was in third with 8% and federal inmate Eric Hafner, a Democratic candidate, was in fourth with 3.8%.
Schultz has already suspended his campaign and is expected to withdraw, which would elevate fifth-place finisher John Williams, a Fairbanks Democrat with 2.6% of the vote. Republican Clay Strickland was in sixth with 2.4%.

Lauren Boebert’s son is one of a group of men facing serious felony charges.
Tyler Boebert already accepted a plea deal on child abuse charges but is also on the hook for allegedly exploiting a minor.
It sounds like the distribution of the video — allegedly sending it to others — is what got him caught.
He’s facing a string of other criminal allegations and is already looking down the barrel at multiple sentencing hearings.
Lauren Boebert’s 21-year-old son is accused of filming and sharing CSAM
Tyler Boebert is facing three counts of exploitation of a child and two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
Sexually explicit pictures were posted to Instagram and circulated online in 2024.
Interestingly, Tyler appeared pro se in court — without an attorney, representing himself.
If convicted, he could face up to 12 years in prison on each of the charges.
When he appeared at the Garfield County Combined Courts in Colorado, the judge enjoined him from contacting two parties but allowed him to otherwise return home and to continue working.
According to law enforcement, Tyler allegedly filmed a 43-second video with his then-underage girlfriend.
He was 18 at the time. His girlfriend was 17. Even when sexual intercourse is perfectly legal and appropriate, minors should not appear on camera during this time — particularly when filmed by an adult.
(There is no discernible difference between a naked photo that a 16-year-old snapped themselves and that a 50-year-old predator snapped of a 16-year-old, so none of it can be allowed to circulate online.)
The video, though child sex-abuse material, was recorded just two weeks prior to her birthday. It likely would not have been an issue for anyone had it remained private.
When the girl’s ex-boyfriend received a copy of the video, she went to the police.
Tyler Boebert, Rep. Lauren Boebert’s oldest son, has been arrested on charges of sexual exploitation of a child, according to the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office.

Even before this, Tyler was in a world of trouble
Tyler is scheduled to appear in court for a new hearing on September 10.
He was already to appear before a judge that day for sentencing an unrelated 2024 criminal case.
That case involved a series of vehicle trespass and property theft incidents.
It is unclear if that sentencing will be rescheduled. It is also not the only legal trouble that he’s in.
Tyler is also awaiting sentencing after accepting a plea deal on charges of child abuse and negligence without injury.
According to authorities, Tyler Boebert’s baby was found wandering around a neighborhood in July of 2025.
Apparently, this was not even the first incident. Just weeks earlier, prosecutors accused, the child was “wandering around” wearing only a diaper.
Thankfully, a neighbor came to the rescue.
Prosecutors have asked the court to sentence Tyler to a maximum of 30 days in jail and to 12 months of supervised probation. They also want him to be ordered to take a proper parenting program.
It’s probably useful to remember that Tyler is not the only extremely young parent in his family. Lauren Boebert was born in 1986 and she is already a grandmother.
That explains why she acts a little like you’d imagine one of the worse Teen Mom stars ended up on Congress. It’s not an excuse — not for Lauren and not for Tyler. But it might explain why neither of them had a decent chance at being a good person or a good parent.
