The Navajo Nation’s economy is a major campaign issue due to the precarious future of the coal-fired Navajo Generating Station, which is a major source of revenue and jobs for the tribe. The primary ballot for president includes the current incumbent, his vice president and three women among many others. It’s the first election since a purge of 52,000 people from the voter rolls. The top two vote-getters go on to the general election in November.
