PRIMARIAS ESTATALES
​

LOS CANDIDATOS RESPONDEN

Los habitantes de Alaska votarán en las elecciones primarias estatales del 18 de agosto, reduciendo los campos de candidatos a un demócrata/independiente y un republicano para cada puesto. La elección general es el 3 de noviembre.
 
Los votantes elegirán un candidato para servir a Alaska en la Cámara de Representantes de los Estados Unidos. El titular es el representante Don Young, un republicano que se presenta nuevamente en estas elecciones. Otros tres republicanos, dos demócratas y un independiente también compiten por el puesto en las primarias.

Los votantes también elegirán un candidato para servir a Alaska en el Senado de los Estados Unidos. Hay dos senadores de Alaska en el Congreso de los Estados Unidos, pero solo el asiento de uno está en proceso de elección. Dan Sullivan, Republicano, se postula para la reelección del puesto que ocupa actualmente. Un demócrata y tres independientes también se postulan para el mismo puesto en las primarias.
​
Hay dos boletas separadas disponibles para los votantes el día de las elecciones primarias. Uno es para el boleto republicano, disponible para republicanos registrados, votantes independientes y votantes no declarados. También hay una boleta para candidatos demócratas e independientes, que está abierta a cualquier votante registrado.
 
Le pedimos a cada candidato que respondiera algunas preguntas sobre economía, inmigración, salud y educación. Hemos incluido en esta sección las respuestas de quienes respondieron.


STATE PRIMARY ELECTION​

​
THE CANDIDATES SPEAK

​Alaskans will vote in the state primary election August 18, narrowing the fields of candidates down to one Democrat/Independent and one Republican for each position. The general election is November 3.
 
Voters will choose one candidate to serve Alaska in the U.S. House of Representatives. The incumbent is Representative Don Young, a Republican who is running again in this election. Three other Republicans, two Democrats and one Independent are also vying for the position in the primary.
 
Voters will also choose one candidate to serve Alaska in the U.S. Senate. There are two Alaska Senators in the U.S. Congress, but the seat of only one — Daniel Sullivan — is up for reelection. Sullivan is running for reelection for the seat he currently occupies. One Democrat and three Independents are also running for the position in the primary.
 
There are two separate ballots available to voters on primary election day. One is for the Republican ticket, available to registered Republicans, Independent voters and undeclared voters. There is also a ballot for Democratic and Independent candidates, which is opened to any registered voter.
 
We asked each candidate to answer a few questions about the economy, immigration, health and education. We’ve included the answers of those who responded below.
