The largest gain was for the Moderate Party (Cen), which gained 27 net seats, and the greatest loss was for the Reform Party (L) which hemorrhaged 10 seats, more than 2/3rds of their total. The election resulted in the first minority (in Alaska referred to as a "plurality") government in the nation's history.
