voting

Young people make up a fraction of Alaska’s registered voters, and their turnouts are lower than the general population’s. But, Soldotna saw a handful of young voters at two of its precincts on Election Day.

Americans took to the polls Tuesday for the 2024 presidential election. In Alaska, voters picked from their choice of presidential, state and local candidates, and voted on two ballot measures.

A group of community members in Soldotna recently took to the streets to highlight the importance of voting. Participants of the first-ever “Walk for Democracy” say they’re trying to create conversations around political differences.

This year, seats are open on the Kenai and Soldotna city councils, the Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly and the local school board. The candidate filing period will close on Aug. 15 at 4:30 p.m.

The department warned Alaska could face legal action if the violations aren’t resolved.

A group dominated testimony at Tuesday's assembly meeting with their thoughts about borough election security.
