An Alaska judge upheld most of the state’s newly redistricted political map late Tuesday but overturned a decision that created two East Anchorage Senate seats linked with Eagle River.
Peter Torkelson, executive director of the Alaska Redistricting Board, works alongside board member Bethany Marcum as the board worked to redraw legislative boundaries in Anchorage on Friday, Nov. 5, 2021.
by the five-member Alaska Redistricting Board, also overturned the boundaries of two state House districts in Southeast Alaska. “While the court does not make this finding lightly, it does find evidence of secretive procedures evident in the board’s consideration and deliberation of the Anchorage Senate seat pairings,” the judge wrote.
Unless overturned on appeal, the decision may result in a map slightly more favorable to liberal candidates in this fall’s general election.
