In Alaska, Democrat Mary Peltola has a razor-thin lead over Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan, the incumbent. The Associated Press' latest tally as of Nov. 5 shows Peltola with 48.2% of the votes to Sullivan's 47.9% with about 76.8% of ballots counted.
The state also has a ranked-choice voting system, which means a candidate must get more than 50% of the vote to win. If they don't, there are more rounds of counting. In this race, the ranked-choice tally wouldn't start until Nov. 18 under state law.
The day before the midterm elections Alaska Public Media (PBS-NPR) offered a explainer on why Alaska counts ballots so slow.
Some states count ballots very quickly. Alaska is not one of them. For instance, it took roughly two weeks to call a winner of the state’s U.S. Senate race in 2008 and 2010.
The slow pace is due in part to the fact that state law allows overseas absentee ballots to arrive as many as 15 days after Election Day, though they have to be postmarked by Nov. 3. That, and it’s complicated and difficult to run an election in a vast, sparsely populated state like Alaska, said Burke Croft with the consulting firm Ship Creek Group.
“The No. 1 biggest thing that characterizes so much of Alaska's elections is just the state’s size and the unique logistical challenges that come with that,” Croft said in an interview.
In most areas, ballots are tabulated by machine. But in 131 of the state’s more than 400 precincts, election workers count ballots by hand, then read the results over the phone to regional offices.
Nearly all votes will likely be counted by Nov. 13
Election officials are scheduled to provide updated counts 7, 10 and 15 days after Election Day. They sometimes also update totals outside that schedule.
The first scheduled update on Nov. 10 is expected to include almost all of the early vote, plus a large batch of absentee ballots mostly from off the road system, according to historical data Croft cited. By the next scheduled update on Nov. 13, nearly all ballots should be counted, and the last remaining votes will be included in the final unofficial update on Nov. 18.
The downward spiral continued when Puddle offered UFC owner Dana White the job of White House press secretary.
We are a ridiculous people...
President Donald Trump said Saturday that he offered the White House press secretary job to Dana White, but a source familiar with the matter says the Ultimate Fighting Championship CEO declined the unorthodox idea. https://t.co/EQw8DcXsgz
Shortly after his post, rumors flew that it might have been a mix-up of Dana White's...
This may actually be the real Dana White. Unfortunately, his staff is probably too scared to correct him. He may lose his shit once he finds out that she’s not white and blonde. 💀 https://t.co/MYQC8m2Htz
UFC Dana White, according to CNN, has turned down the job offer. He did confirm that he is meeting with Puddle this morning...
Reporter: You've been offered the job as press secretary of the United States at the moment. Can you tell us a little bit about that and your reaction to his post?
Dana White: I'm flying to Washington, D.C., right now.
Reporter: Yeah, straight after this.
Dana White: Yeah, right now.
Reporter: And you do a lot. How do you believe you could balance what you do at the moment alongside that?
Dana White: Yeah, yeah, I got a lot of jobs around. Yeah.
Reporter: Can you tell us about some of the conversations you've had with him about that?
Dana White: No, I'm going to meet with him. We have a meeting on Monday, so I'll have more to talk about after that.
Buzz App. My Ears. 11/09/2026. Remarks given 11/07/2026.
Sunday morning, Puddle posted an AI-generated cartoon offering a peek into what a Dana White press briefing would look like, according to Dr. Clown PhD.
I don't really care about the whole transcript of this tacky AI-generated cartoon...
The end of the video shows a UFC fighter, I don't know his name, who says, "Michelle Obama is a man! Am I right, America?"
It really happened. June 15th, 2026 from our White House lawn...
Hours later he told the press he was "only kidding", but "Dana loves the idea", and it's one of those things were "I was only kidding," but people said "that's actually a pretty good idea."
Reporter: Mr. President, what made you suggest Dana White, and are you serious about it or are you kidding around?
Puddle:
Well, if you look at, you saw the assistants I put. I posted the greatest wrestlers and UFC fighters in the world, right? Like Khabib, like Dustin, Justin Gaethje, who's phenomenal. And you see a lot of rough faces there. And you would have thought that people would have said he's having a good time.
I, I will tell you, I, I was only kidding. Dana loves the idea, and there's only one Dana. He's great. I don't know. He would be, you wouldn't mess around with him so much. But, so I was kidding.
Of course, when you look at the fighters that I put in, that's why I said some don't come from our country. They come from parts unknown. They come from, uh, a lot of areas that are very rough areas. But, so I was kidding, but I think Dana likes the idea, and he is a very capable guy.
So he's actually coming tomorrow. Of course I was kidding. And you could see that because I put all of the great fighters as his assistants, that they're all going to come with him. But, uh, it was, it was just a little punch.
But Dana is actually coming tomorrow, actually on other, for other reasons. I think he was going to be in Washington. So he's going to come over and see me. That was an example of something where I was kidding, and then people said, you know, that's actually a pretty good idea.
