James O’Keefe films Alaska poll workers handing out ballots without ID

James O’Keefe, founder of O’Keefe Media Group, posted a video from Thursday that captures poll workers in Anchorage offering ballots to people who presented the names Brian Murkowski and Karina Waller, both linked to Senator Lisa Murkowski, without requesting photo identification. At the first site, a worker located the name on the voter roll, confirmed the correct precinct, and told O’Keefe that voting was "absolutely possible" even without ID.

A second location followed the same pattern, with a staff member confirming the registration of Karina Waller and offering a ballot despite the lack of identification. O’Keefe did not actually submit a ballot, but the test highlights a potential loophole in Alaska’s voting procedures. Prior to the video’s release, Murkowski’s press secretary, Joe Plesha, affirmed the senator’s long-standing support for voter-ID requirements and her opposition to the SAVE America Act, which she argues would be impractical and could suppress votes in remote areas.
