Suzanne LaFrance is poised to unseat incumbent Anchorage Mayor Dave Bronson and become the citys first elected female mayor.
Partial, unofficial election night results Tuesday show the former Anchorage Assembly chair leading Bronson by 9.8%.
There are still thousands of ballots left to count, but the lead will be difficult for Bronson to overcome. If voter turnout patterns continue from recent mayoral elections, Bronson would need the outstanding ballots to favor him nearly 2-to-1 to overcome the deficit.
If LaFrances lead holds, she will officially take office on July 1.
