The 1972 United States House of Representatives election in Alaska was held on November 7, 1972, to elect the United States representative from Alaska's at-large congressional district. Incumbent Democratic Representative Nick Begich went missing shortly before the general election, but still defeated Republican nominee Don Young.[1]
This was the last time that a Democrat won Alaska's House seat until 2022’s special election, when Mary Peltola was elected to succeed the late Young.[2]
