Summary

Lieutenant Governor Nancy Dahlstrom pulled two candidates off the ballot for failing to disclose finances — only to flip her decision moments later, citing others’ rule-breaking. With no initial proof or named sources, the reversal sparked outrage and raised alarms about fairness and partisan favoritism in Alaska’s elections. A post-hoc review from the Department of Law confirmed the reinstatement was ultimately decided by Dahlstrom’s office — leaving voters questioning whether the law truly applies equally to all.
