Doyon 2010 Get Out the Native Vote
It’s Your Choice and Voice
Updated 8/12/10

For the past several years, Doyon has sponsored a “Get out the Native Vote” campaign to inform, register and encourage Doyon shareholders to participate in elections. We are continuing the initiative this fall, focusing on State legislative seats in the Interior (House Districts 6 through 11).

Special Election Newsletters on House District 6 – 11 Candidates

Doyon surveyed candidates and produced newsletters to inform shareholders in districts 6 through 11 on the viewpoints, positions and priorities of their district’s candidates who ran in the August 24th primary election.

Doyon did not take a position on any of the candidates; rather it is provided the candidates’ viewpoints so voters can make informed decisions. Below are links to the special election newsletters.
