Voting in Alaska's ranked choice election has already concluded, but results won't be known until more than two weeks after the election was held.
And some Alaskans are wondering: Why?
A rule made by the Alaska Division of Elections earlier this year dictates that second-ranking on voters' ballots — key information needed to determine who among the three candidates on the ballot will emerge as the winner of the race — won't be released until all ballots are counted on Aug. 31.
