The Nov. 5 general election will draw far larger turnout from both sides, but with Trump on the ballot, as well as a chance to repeal ranked-choice voting, conservatives are likely to come out in force when it matters.

With low turnout in a mostly meaningless nonpartisan “jungle primary,” it’s difficult to gauge exactly which candidates Alaska voters will actually support come November. The Nov.

While both State House candidates running in Anchorage’s District 12 will automatically advance out of the Aug. 20 primary to November’s general election, the ultimate outcome of this race will help…

Thankfully, Alaskans have a golden opportunity to do away with jungle primaries and RCV by voting “yes” on Ballot Measure 2. If it passes in November, Alaska will restore party primaries and the traditional voting system for all future elections.

Alaska’s current primary voting system creates political mayhem. Mail-in and early voting is already underway for the Aug. 20 primary, but in the end, nearly every candidate vying for state office…

OPINION: "If we accept hormonal contraceptives, we must embrace the trans*xual man. We cannot claim that only a certain degree of disrespect for nature is philosophically sound and progressive."

The artificially hollowed-out reproductive organs of the hyper s*xed 1990’s are completed, even perfected, in the neutered version of womanhood presented today. Young women in the generations which…

So, why do we have a Ted Stevens Day? Because with his seniority and influence, Stevens steered massive amounts of federal dollars to keep our economy afloat, creating the dependency and control that is the very hallmark of socialism.

If conservatives still celebrated “Ted Stevens Day” this past Saturday, they unfortunately have a lot of soul-searching and education to go through. I would rather that the public allow him to rest in…

Alaska's Supreme Court is guilty of violating its own policy. They’ve hired one of the state's best attorneys to represent them in a case they will rule on. The whole thing is an outrageous, bizarre circus.

Four decades after drafting the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson warned that allowing the judiciary to be the ultimate arbitrator of all constitutional questions would place us under the…

While most large school districts like Anchorage, Fairbanks and Juneau have well known policies that hide a child’s s*xual confusion from parents who are deemed “unsupportive,” many of the school districts cited the PJ Media article are from rural Alaska Native villages and other small communities.

A new report from PJ Media reveals that many rural Alaska school districts have joined their urban counterparts in adopting protocols that conceal a student’s so-called “gender transition” from…

Our Mission: Why we exist

Alaskans increasingly struggle with cultural forces that undermine the sanctity of human life, marriage and religious liberties. Additionally Alaska families face challenges to parental rights, limits on educational choices and an aggressive promotion of harmful s*xual ideologies to our youth.

Given that most societal changes begin on the grassroots level, Alaska Watchman is a unique, professional news platform that accurately reports on local political bodies, public organizations and influential cultural groups. We provide public accountability, highlight positive efforts and equip Alaskans with information they can use to make a difference in our communities.
