When southwest Alaska voters head to the polls Tuesday, they'll decide who represents them in the state House for the next two years.
Bryce Edgmon has represented District 37 — including the Aleutian and Pribilof Islands — for more than a decade.
Now running for his sixth term, the Dillingham Democrat told KUCB he wants to balance Alaska's budget without cutting existing programs — even if that means changes to Permanent Fund dividends or a broad-based tax.
William Weatherby is trying to unseat Edgmon and earn his first elected office.
