AK: Election results: Anchorage Assembly stays blue

It was an easy election night for incumbents but a tough night for conservative candidates for the Anchorage Assembly, with ballot counting showing strong leads for Assemblymen Felix Rivera of midtown and Chris Constant of north town.

Also, the candidates for open seats who were backed by the Democratic Party had a strong advantage when all of the votes that could be counted were through the machine.

The progressive trend in Anchorage will continue, as these results are unlikely to flip, even as ballots submitted on Tuesday and those that will arrive in coming days are counted by the Anchorage Election Office.

The only conservative with a likely win on Tuesday is Scott Myers of Eagle River, who easily beat Democrat Jim Arlington.
