Ballot Measure No. 1
This measure would raise Alaska’s minimum wage to $13 in 2025, $14 in 2026, and $15 in 2027, with further increases tied to inflation. It would also require employers to provide paid sick leave and prevent mandatory meetings about religious or political topics. A “Yes” vote supports these changes, while a “No” vote keeps current laws in place.
Ballot Measure No. 2
This measure would end ranked-choice voting and open primaries, returning to party-based primaries and single-choice general elections, as they were before 2022. A “Yes” vote restores the previous election system, while a “No” vote keeps the current system.

Ranked Choice Voting
Ranked Choice Voting allows voters to rank candidates in order of preference. In all state and federal elections, voters rank candidates in order of preference, instead of only choosing one.
- Rank the candidates you like in order of preference.
- Your favorite is your first choice.
- Ranking other candidates doesn’t affect your first choice.
- If a candidate receives a majority of first-choice votes (50%+1), they win. If no candidate receives a majority, the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated and voters that ranked that candidate first have their vote counted for their next choice.
- This process continues until one candidate receives a majority of voters’ choices.
