Democrat Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins wins Alaska governor’s race

Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins, a former Democratic state representative, has won the Alaska governor’s race, according to the Associated Press, flipping the office from Republican control.

Kreiss-Tomkins, 37, will be the youngest governor in Alaska’s history. He defeated three Republicans, including President Donald Trump’s preferred candidate, Bernadette Wilson. Kreiss-Tomkins will be the state’s first Democratic governor since Tony Knowles, who served from 1994 to 2002, and will succeed Gov. Mike Dunleavy (R).
