  • The 1964 United States presidential election in Alaska took place on November 3, 1964, as part of the nationwide presidential election. Voters chose three representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president. Alaska was won by incumbent President Lyndon B. Johnson (D-Texas) with 65.9% of the popular vote against U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater (R-Arizona) with 34.1%. Johnson won the national vote as well, defeating Goldwater and serving a full term after finishing the assassinated John F. Kennedy's term. This is the only presidential election when Alaska has voted for a Democratic candidate, partially due to Johnson's landslide victory throughout the rest of the country (except for the Deep South and Goldwater's home state), and partially because during its first four presidential elections Alaska was not anomalously Republican relative to the nation at-large, which the state would become and remain very strongly from 1976 onwards. Indeed, despite Johnson's landslide, Alaska came out of the 1964 election as 4.63 percent more Democratic than the nation at-large on a two-party basis. This is also the only time any presidential candidate has won every single borough in the state. At a more local level, all boroughs and census areas voted for Johnson, and the relatively populous boroughs of Matanuska-Susitna, Fairbanks North Star, Ketchikan Gateway and Kodiak Island have never voted for a Democratic candidate since – although Matanuska-Susitna was the most populous amongst fifteen county-equivalents who gave a plurality to Ross Perot in 1992. The Aleutians East Borough, Bristol Bay Borough, and Denali Borough have also not voted Democratic since, though Denali Borough also gave a plurality to Ross Perot. Anchorage would not vote for the Democratic candidate again until 2020. Alaska was one of the three states that voted with a certain party for the first time in this election, the other two being Georgia and Vermont, however, this is also the only time Alaska voted for the Democratic candidate for president, which made Johnson the only Democratic nominee to ever carry the state.
