Statewide ballot measures: what your vote means
For each measure: the official ballot title, what a YES vote and a NO vote would do, and what would change, in plain language from official sources. SaveYourState does not take positions on ballot measures.
2 statewide measures are on the ballot. 1 has a “Heads up” note because a YES vote repeals, undoes, or removes something. Official sources checked October 22, 2026.
Ballot Measure 2 (24ESEG) · Initiated state statute
Party primaries, ranked-choice voting, and campaign finance rules
Heads up: A YES vote repeals Alaska’s open top-four primary and ranked-choice general elections, and repeals campaign finance limits and disclosure rules adopted by voters in 2020.
A YES vote means:
Alaska’s open top-four primary and ranked-choice general elections would end, and party primaries with single-choice general elections would return. Certain campaign finance limits and disclosure rules adopted by voters in 2020 would be repealed.
A NO vote means:
The open top-four primary, ranked-choice general elections, and the 2020 campaign finance and disclosure rules would stay in place.
Ballot Measure 3 (25USCV) · Initiated state statute
Citizenship wording in voter qualifications
A YES vote means:
State law on voter qualifications would be reworded to say that only a person who is a United States citizen and meets the other requirements may vote. The official summary says the requirements to vote would not change.
A NO vote means:
The current wording of Alaska’s voter qualification law, which already requires United States citizenship, would stay the same.
Two citizen initiatives, numbered Ballot Measures 2 and 3. Ballot Measure 1 was decided at an earlier 2026 election and is not on the November ballot. Explanations draw on the official ballot titles and summaries, bill language, and statements of costs.
