Alaska is a non-contiguous U.S. state on the northwest extremity of North America. Alaska was purchased by the United States in 1867, however, it did not become an incorporated territory of the United States until 1912.[1] The Constitution of Alaska, itself ratified by a vote of the people in 1956, outlined specific guidelines for ballot measures in Article XI, stating that "the people may propose and enact laws by the initiative, and approve or reject acts of the legislature by the referendum."[2] Congress approved statehood in 1958 and when Alaska formally entered the union in 1959, it became the 20th state to have a system of direct voting.[3]
In 2004, the Alaskan Legislature took steps to limit the number of measures that could appear on the ballot each year.[4] The new rules required that measures initiatives and referendums receive signatures from three-quarters of Alaska's legislative districts and increased the total number of signatures required to a tenth of voters in the most recent election.[5]
In 2020, Alaska became the second state in the nation to adopt a ranked-choice voting system when Ballot Measure 2 passed by less than 4,000 votes.[6] Implementation of this system was postponed while state courts processed several legal challenges, but the Alaska Supreme Court upheld the measure in January 2022.[7] The system was first used in the 2022 special election primary.[8]
