Alaska's at-large congressional district

At-large U.S. House district for Alaska

Since becoming a U.S. state in 1959, Alaska has been entitled to one member in the United States House of Representatives. The representative is elected at-large, because the state has only one congressional district, encompassing its entire territory. By area, Alaska's congressional district is the largest congressional district in the United States and the third-largest electoral district represented by a single member in the world. It is exceeded by Yakutsk district in Russia, which is similar in size to India and is the largest, and Nunavut, which comprises a single electoral district in Canada.
