Ballot Initiatives

Discards open primary elections, where all candidates appear on one ballot regardless of their party affiliation, and would also eliminate ranked-choice general elections. Restores political party primaries, in which voters would request one party’s ballot and vote for candidates from that ballot. The act would also restore single-choice general elections, so that voters would vote for only one candidate in each race and the candidate with the most votes would win. Party petitions, special runoff elections, and other processes would return. This act would also repeal campaign finance rules that were passed in 2020. It would remove the limits on donations to joint campaigns for governor and lieutenant governor. It would remove limits and disclosure rules under current law, including for digital ads, out-of-state donations, undisclosed donations, and the true source of donations. It would change the meaning of a campaign expenditure and remove some fines.

This act would require that only U.S. citizens can vote in any election. It would amend the current statute that dictates voter qualifications so that it includes the language that "only a person who" meets the outlined qualifications of U.S. citizenship, age, Alaskan residency, and voter registration "may vote at any election."
