Alaska’s Division of Elections sent out over 3,000 citizenship verification letters—way more than usual—sparking concern as even confirmed citizens received them. The state insists it’s just a procedural cleanup to ensure only eligible voters remain on the rolls, not a voter suppression tactic. Letters ask recipients to confirm citizenship via mail, phone, or email; non-responses lead to “inactive” status, though voters can still cast special ballots with eligibility confirmation. The unusual spike stems from a DMV data mismatch—only non-citizen applicants’ info was provided, leaving recent citizens unmarked. Officials are investigating outdated records and urge voters to update their DMV info to avoid future confusion.
