A week after Anchorage’s mail-in municipal election, nearly all progressive and moderate Assembly candidates continue to hold comfortable leads over their challengers.
Incumbent Assembly candidate Felix Rivera sign waves on Election Day, April 4, along with his supporters and supporters of Assembly candidate Anna Brawley.
Johnson is poised to join three other new Assembly members who tend to support policies put forth by the body’s left-of-center majority. Progressive candidates Karen Bronga, George Martinez and Anna Brawley hold sizable leads over their more conservative opponents. “My hope is that the mayor gets the message that the community supports the Assembly,” Constant said. “And that his best approach is to figure out how to work with us, as opposed to constantly trying to oppose us.”
“It’s almost inappropriate in my opinion, and it’s probably going to get me in trouble for saying so, but the Alaska Republican Party took zero interest in this local race,” Myers said.
