Alaskans Demand Voter Roll Fixes | Anchorage News

Twenty-three lawmakers, including Republicans and Independents, are demanding Alaska’s Elections Director restore all voters to the rolls unless proven ineligible, calling her purge of thousands—allegedly for suspected non-citizenship—a dangerous threat to voting rights. With the August 18 primary looming, critics like Rep. Ky Holland suspect the timing is intentional, designed to sow confusion and erode trust. Real voters like 75-year-old Jeannie McLeod, who legally updated her citizenship, are being told it’s too late to vote properly and must cast a “questioned” ballot—something she refuses to accept. While officials call it routine maintenance, lawmakers warn this could disenfranchise thousands and undermine confidence in Alaska’s election system.
