Place narrative
Prudhoe Bay's population is almost entirely made up of transient oil-field workers on rotation schedules, making traditional residential voting patterns nearly impossible to track and census counts highly variable.

These Census-place returns are modeled candidate-vote estimates on Census boundaries unless a row explicitly says certified. They are not automatically the official city or town return.
† 2012, 2020 sub-county results are estimated: the source reported that cycle at county or municipality level (COVID-era consolidated reporting), so block-level detail is interpolated from adjacent cycles and scaled to certified totals.
