It’s municipal Election Day, and Juneau voters head to the polls from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Voters will decide who should fill three seats on the Juneau Assembly and two seats on the Juneau School Board, as well as whether the Assembly should be allowed to create an empowered board to manage the city’s swimming pools.

Tony Yorba, Maria Gladziszewski and Norton Gregory are the candidates for Areawide Assembly.

Debbie White, Joshua Warren, Kory Hunt and David Fox are running for Assembly District 2, representing the Mendenhall Valley and out-the-road. Karla Hart’s name also appears on the ballot for that seat, but she previously announced she was pulling out of the race.

Jesse Kiehl is running unopposed for Assembly District 1, representing downtown Juneau and Douglas Island. This will be Kiehl’s second term on the Assembly.

Brian Holst and Sean O’Brien’s names are on the ballot for school board. Former Floyd Dryden Middle School Principal Tom Milliron also is running as a write-in for one of the two open seats on the board.
