Q&As with Mat-Su Assembly, Mayor and School Board Candidates
Candidates for Mat-Su mayor, assembly and school board respond to questions in this handy, easy-to-use guide.
Over the past few months, voters across the Matanuska-Susitna Borough sent us their top questions for this year's mayor, assembly and school board candidates. We compiled the most frequently asked questions and the hottest local issues into a survey and contacted each candidate for their input. We also compiled information on four ballot propositions.
All candidates for mayor and assembly submitted answers and information in this guide, while only one candidate for school board agreed to participate.
Below you will find candidate questionnaires submitted by:
- Edna DeVries, candidate for Mayor
- Luke Hyce, candidate for Assembly, District 3
- Dee McKee, candidate for Assembly, District 3
- Dmitri Fonov, candidate for Assembly, District 6
- Ron Bernier, candidate for Assembly, District 7
- Sheena Fort, candidate for Assembly, District 7

The remaining candidates declined to participate.

About the Mat-Su Sentinel borough voter guide
What you see in this voter guide is exactly what each candidate submitted. We did not provide any edits or make changes of any kind. Submitted photos were cropped for size or received minimal color corrections to display correctly on your screen. Candidates listed without a photo and with "no response" answers did not submit responses to a voter guide questionnaire distributed by email.

How to find your polling place
There are two easy ways to search for your polling place online.
Voters can look up their registration information and find their polling precinct number and address in the Alaska State Voter Search portal. Simply enter your first name, last name, and the city on your mailing address, then select "Submit." The system will find your name and information. Note: This portal does not work in the Chrome browser.
Another way to find your polling place is to use the Alaska State Map portal, which relies on GIS mapping to link an address to a precinct number and location. Enter your full address into the search field, and the map will display the location and assigned precinct information.
