Alaska's slow vote count could delay Senate result
Original: Alaska could keep America waiting for results of closely scrutinized U.S. Senate election
Alaska may take days or longer to finalize its closely watched U.S. Senate election results, keeping the nation waiting. The state's election system, which includes mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day and a ranked-choice process after a potential open primary, means counting extends well past election night. With control of the Senate potentially at stake, observers across the country are watching how the count unfolds and what a slow tally could mean.
Why now: A Senate seat with national implications may remain undecided because of Alaska's slow, ranked-choice counting process.
