Thomson is a therapist here in Juneau, and she said she’s nervous to speak publicly about the risks to gender-affirming care in Alaska. But, now, she said, is the time to stand up and use her voice to support her clients, who are overwhelmingly transgender.

Republican Nick Begich III maintained his lead over Democratic Congresswoman Mary Peltola after the Division of Elections posted an updated results tally late Tuesday night. Begich now has about 49% of first-place votes to Peltola’s nearly 46%. That’s a difference of nearly 10,000 votes. If neither of the candidates win more than 50% of first-place votes once all valid ballots are counted, the winner will be determined by ranked choice tabulation on Nov. 20.

Residents of low-lying villages in Alaska know exactly where their communities are most prone to flooding, but that information hasn’t always been accessible on a wider scale. New research helps compile more than 130 years of on-the-ground flood observations to help communities and outside agencies prepare for and predict future floods. As fall storm season looms, so do storm-driven floods.
