**The Alaska governor primary on August 18, 2026, is a nonpartisan top-four contest with 17 candidates vying to advance to the November general election under ranked-choice voting.** Incumbent Republican Mike Dunleavy is term-limited, creating an open race. Recent polls, including Alaska Survey Research and Change Research surveys from June–July, show Tom Begich (D) leading with support in the high teens to low 20s, followed by Bernadette Wilson (R), David Bronson (R), Click Bishop (R), and Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins (D) as the strongest contenders for the four advancement spots. Final-week factors include ongoing early voting, a multi-newsroom voter guide, candidate debates, and name recognition or party infrastructure advantages that could consolidate support among the fragmented field. Outcomes hinge on turnout patterns and last-minute shifts among undecided voters in this low-information primary environment.
