Sitka’s municipal election is Tuesday, October 6. Nine candidates are on the ballot running for public office — three are running for the mayor’s chair, three more are vying for two open assembly seats alongside one write-in candidate, and three are running for three open seats on the Sitka School Board. Voters will also weigh in on one ballot proposition. Municipal Clerk Sara Peterson, Deputy Municipal Clerk Holley Bayne, and Assistant Municipal Clerk Brian Schoenfelder joined KCAW on the Morning Interview to discuss early voting, ballot contents, and other election details.
