Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The current shapefile provided by the Alaska Division of Elections was a draft submission and hence, the resolution is quite poor.

Describe the solution you'd like
Download and process an Alaska district level shapefile at the same 1:500,000 resolution as the U.S. county shapefile

Describe alternatives you've considered
The draft submission shapefile provided by the Alaska Division of Elections.

Additional context
The U.S. Census Bureau Geography Division publishes higher resolution shapefiles for the lower chambers for all state legislative districts, including Alaska.
