**Alaska’s August 18 open primary for governor features a crowded 17-candidate field to replace term-limited Republican Gov. Mike Dunleavy.** With ballots still being counted as of late August, Democratic former state Rep. Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins and former state Sen. Tom Begich lead with roughly 22% and 20.5% respectively. They are followed by Republican business owner Bernadette Wilson at about 10% and former Anchorage Mayor Dave Bronson near 8%. Several other Republicans trail closely behind. The top four advance to November’s ranked-choice general election. Vote tallies have remained stable in recent updates, though final absentee ballots are due by Aug. 28 and candidates have until Aug. 31 to withdraw. Bronson has publicly committed to staying in, while Democrats are weighing consolidation. These dynamics, along with the fragmented Republican vote in a state without an incumbent, are shaping trader focus on which four tickets will reach the general ballot.
