ANCHORAGE, Alaska — By a wide margin, Alaskans firmly rejected a ballot measure asking whether Alaska should hold a constitutional convention, according to preliminary election results.
Seventy percent of voters were rejecting it, with 387 of 402 precincts reporting.
The question on whether to hold a convention to draft changes to the Alaska Constitution appears on the ballot every 10 years. It has failed by a roughly 2-1 margin for decades.
