Gov. Mike Dunleavy has endorsed Brian Flynn’s candidacy for the West Anchorage District 3 seat on the Anchorage Assembly, which is being vacated by Austin Quinn-Davidson.
However, Democrats are advocating for Anna Brawley’s election, despite her potential conflict of interest as an employee of AgnewBeck, a company that has received multiple government contracts through the Assembly.
The voter turnout for the April 4 election has been lower than last year’s election, with only 28,500 ballots received as of Friday afternoon, compared to 33,809 at the same point in time.
To ensure your vote is counted, remember the following guidelines:
- – The Anchorage ballot is not a ranked-choice ballot. You may only vote for one candidate.
- – If you’re mailing your ballot, be sure to use two first-class stamps.
- – If you mail your ballot on Election Day or the day before, request that the postal worker hand-cancel or hand-stamp the envelope with the date.
- – Ballots must be postmarked on or before April 4 at 8 pm.
