2018 AFN Voting Guide

On behalf of the AFN Board of Directors and the members of the Elections and Media Committee, we are proud to present to you the 2018 AFN Voting Guide. 

Our goal in issuing this guide is to ensure that Alaska Native voters are well informed on Election Day, Tuesday, November 6th. We trust that an informed voter will make the right decisions in the voting booth for his/her family, community and state. In the following pages you will read U.S. House of Representatives and Alaska Governor candidates’ answers to a comprehensive questionnaire that is focused on Native and rural issues. 

We gratefully acknowledge the work of the AFN Elections and Media Committee and AFN staff for their work on querying the candidates and publishing this voting guide. 

We urge you to get out and vote and help others get to the voting booth. 

Remember: Your Voice is Your Vote 

Sincerely, 

Ana Hoffman & Will Mayo
AFN Co-chairs
