Tuesday's election may have been a big win for Alaska Republicans, but preliminary results show Unalaska went blue.

In Race For House District 37, Edgmon And Weatherby Campaign On Different Approaches To Budget Gap

SKIP GRAY/GAVEL ALASKA AND WILLIAM WEATHERBY

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.
