Petition to repeal Alaska's election reform law will go in front of voters

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (KTUU) - A ballot initiative petition that would eliminate the top-four primaries and ranked-choice voting in general elections in Alaska was properly filed, according to Lieutenant Governor Nancy Dahlstrom.

The ballot initiative has three components to it.

The first component would be the repeal of the state’s open primary system. Instead of all candidates, running in the same race, the political parties themselves would be able to determine which candidate would advance to the November general election.

The second component is the elimination of rank-choice voting in general elections.
