Anchorage Assembly updates municipal elections code in advance of spring vote Published January 15 Share on Facebook Print article The Anchorage Assembly on Thursday approved an ordinance with a package of adjustments to the municipal code that governs city elections. The measure, which passed 8-1, is the result of a yearly review of election code. Leading up to the vote, Assembly members grappled with questions of eroding public trust in elections systems. Nationwide, distrust among some voters hit a crescendo after the presidential election and the ensuing unsubstantiated claims of widespread voter fraud. The municipal election is April 6, with voters electing a mayor and members of the School Board. The last day to register to vote is March 7 and ballots are mailed to voters on March 15.
