  • Solidarity Update
    End Of Year 2014 When all the 285,449 votes were finally counted in all 441 precincts across Alaska, the race for Governor ended in an extremely slim margin. With a voter turnout of slightly over 56%, the unity COVER team of Bill Walker and Byron Mallott emerged victorious in a hotly contested election. A slim margin of just over 6,000 votes separated the contestants. Neither team received 50% of the 2014: Two Key Elections Close & vote.

  • State of Alaska General Fund Revenues
    NEW ISSUE – BOOK-ENTRY ONLY RATINGS: See “RATINGS” herein In the opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel, based upon an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and assuming among other matters, the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. In the further opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the Bonds is not a specific preference item for purposes of the federal individual or corporate alternative minimum taxes, although Bond Counsel observes that such interest is included in adjusted current earnings when calculating corporate alternative minimum taxable income. Interest on the Bonds is not included in taxable income for purposes of the Alaska income tax imposed on corporations. Interest on the Bonds may be indirectly subject to the Alaska alternative minimum tax imposed on corporations to the extent that interest on the Bonds is subject to the federal alternative minimum tax on corporations. See “TAX MATTERS. $134,790,000 STATE OF ALASKA General Obligation Bonds Series 2016A Dates, Interest Rates, Prices and Yields Are Shown on the Inside Cover Page The State of Alaska (the “State”) is issuing $134,790,000 aggregate principal amount of General Obligation Bonds, Series 2016A (the “Bonds”).
