The Alaska Beacon staff, in a collaboration with Anchorage Daily News, Alaska Public Media and KTOO, asked every Alaska candidate for U.S. House, U.S. Senate, governor and legislature their positions on several questions, drawing from input from readers. Most candidates responded to the questionnaire. Along with their answers, the guide includes some basic biographical information, their party affiliation, whether they are incumbents and links to their campaign sites. The guide also includes information about each district, as well as the term length and salary for each position.
