Episode Details

Juneau’s school board elections are heading toward an uncontested race unless someone steps up by Monday — incumbents Britteny Cioni-Haywood and David Noon are the only candidates in, and that’s a rare repeat since 2022. Former school board leader Lon Garrison urges Alaskans to get involved, calling these seats vital to democracy and education’s future — even if the job’s tough, thankless, and often involves unpopular decisions like budget fights or union negotiations. The filing deadline is July 27th at 4:30 PM, with write-ins allowed until September 29th — though those rarely win. Meanwhile, the Assembly race is more competitive, with six candidates for three seats, and one Assembly race is also looking uncontested. The municipal election wraps up October 6th.
