Alaska Senate race unresolved as candidates expect weekslong ballot-counting process

TL;DR

The Alaska Senate race is currently unresolved, with a lengthy ballot-counting process anticipated.
The race features incumbent Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan and Democrat Mary Peltola, alongside two other candidates.
Alaska's ranked-choice voting system means a runoff tabulation may occur if no candidate wins more than 50% of first-place votes.
The ranked-choice tabulation will not happen until 15 days after Election Day, potentially extending the counting process for weeks.
The outcome of the Alaska race could influence the balance of power in the Senate, either expanding the Democratic majority or providing relief to Republicans.
