Alaska Governor Approves Campaign Finance Ballot Measure For 2026

Flag of Alaska

Gov. Nancey Dahlstrom recently approved a ballot measure which would once again impose contribution limits on candidates and contributors.

The measure would go to the voters for approval during the November 2026 general election.

If approved, an individual would be able to contribute up to $2,000 to a candidate per election cycle or up to $5,000 to a political party.

An individual would also be able to contribute up to $4,000 to the governor-lieutenant candidate.

Political parties would have limits of $4,000 to candidates and $5,000 to other parties or political groups.

Those limits would be subject to increases every ten years due to inflation.

If the legislature passes similar legislation before then, the measure would be removed from the ballot in 2026.
