Some voters face problems at the polls

Several voters were left confused about where to vote in today’s special mayoral election after the polling locator phone number stopped working, according to city officials.

For a full list of polling places, see the attached document to the left.

For more help, voters can find their polling place online at myvoterinformation.alaska.gov or call the Division of Elections at 465-3021 or 465-4611.

The recent relocation of two polling places has also caused come confusion. People who used to vote in the Auke Bay Fire Hall will now vote at the University of Alaska Southeast Recreation Center. People who used to vote in the Mendenhall Mall now vote at the Mendenhall Valley Public Library. The polling place in the Nugget Mall is still active.

Polls close tonight at 8 p.m.
