Why is it so hard to find election data for Alaska?

The one precinct Romney lost is Talkeetna, a quirky town that is basecamp for treks to Mount Everest.

That's a remarkable geographic feat

Great maps, though. As I understand it, the northern parts of the state went McCain>>Obama, but they still vote Republican at the local/statewide level?

HD 40, the northernmost state house district, has a Democratic state house rep and voted narrowly for the Democrats in the 2010 gubernatorial race.  HD40 is where the oil is, but the people don't live near the oil.  Over half the registered voters in HD40 live in the borough seats of Barrow (North Slope Borough) and Kotzebue (Northwest Arctic Borough).  The rest live in small settlements in the bush.

Who was it that swung McCain>>Obama then? As I understand it, most of the Alaska Panhandle (places like Sitka) didn't change significantly between 2008 and 2012. Alaska, for which it's difficult to find data and which isn't a competitive state, is a place where I could very well be grossly misinformed about the electoral geography.
