In the Democratic primary for U.S. House, Alyse Galvin also took an early advantage, leading Dimitri Shein by thirty points.
In local races, incumbent Senator Mike Shower held a two-to-one advantage over Mat-Su Borough Assembly Member Randall Kowalke with sixty-three percent of precincts reporting.
