Primary election will decide several state Legislative races

In today’s [Tues] primary election Alaskans will decide which candidate will appear on November’s ballot for a given political party. In some races whoever wins the primary is likely to win the seat because they will run unopposed in the general election. On the ballot are candidates for U.S. Senate, U.S. House, ten state Senate and all 40 state House seats. Polls are open until 8 p.m.
