KYUK

KYUK hosted a live debate between incumbent Bob Herron and challenger Zach Fansler, the two candidates running in the House Democratic Primary for Bethel and the surrounding communities. 

KYUK’s Adrian Wagner moderated. The debate occurred August 2 as constituents prepare to cast their votes in the primary election on August 16. A Yupik translation of the debate shortly followed. Ernerculria Charles Enoch translated Adrian Wagner. Atmak Lillian Michael translated Bob Herron. Aqumgaciq John Active translated Zach Fansler.

You can listen to the debate here in English and Yupik. We will rebroadcast the debate in both languages on Wednesday, August 10 at 6:30 p.m.
