Alaska

Outlook: Likely Republican

3 Electoral Votes (3 in 2000)
Bush won in 2004 by 25.55%

Alaska has been a Republican-led state for many years now, as the GOP currently controls both U.S. Senate seats, the at-large congressional seat, the governorship, and both houses of the state Legislature. Nationally, Alaska has only given its three electoral votes to a Democrat once, in Lyndon B. Johnson’s landslide win in 1964. However, there has been growing discord in the Alaskan GOP over the last few years, leaving the Democrats optimistic about accomplishing their pipe dream of making the Last Frontier competitive.
