Bernie caused an unprecedented turnout in Alaska and nationally.  With Hillary on the ticket instead of Bernie, far fewer Alaska Democrats will probably even bother to show up at the polls.   That will surely hurt Democrats at both the state and local levels.  

Apathy has never been a problem for the Alaska GOP, however.  We're sure to be a Trump state, even though he lost the primary here and isn't Evangelical enough for the Alaska GOP base.   A halfhearted GOP effort will easily swamp even the most enthusiastic Clinton Dems in Alaska and many other states as well.
