Who’s Who – Anchorage Mayors Race

Who’s Who – Anchorage Mayors Race

Contributed by Breck Craig

Who are the Mayoral Candidates for Anchorage? Dave Bronson is the incumbent. Evangelical Nationalist right wing. If you’re a Trumper he’s your man.

Bill Popp, former CEO for 17 years of the Anchorage Economic Development Council (AEDC). His job was to promote and attract business to Anchorage. He is the reason SpaceX, Tesla, Google Cloud Data Centers, and so many other dynamic, cutting edge multinational businesses have opened up shop in Anchorage, NOT! While Bill shouldn’t take all the heat for a complete failure to attract new business, his track record does not bode well for being Mayor, probably just the opposite.

LaFrance & Tuck are lefties claiming their independents. Both are carrier machine politicians, so if you like how things are going and love democrats LaFrance & Tuck are for you. The remainder of the candidates are real independents, including me.

I am a citizen candidate, moderate independent with a degree in Political Science and an MBA. I’m running because I do not like the direction Anchorage has taken, nor where we are going.
If you want to vote for someone who is honest, smart, fair, and has a big Vision for not only Anchorage, but the entire Anchorage/Matsu Borough metropolitan area.

I see a city that is new, intelligent, green, and growing. A world class city with a robust international trade as the gateway to Asia and the Arctic.
That’s my vision for Anchorage. I promise to only hire the best and the brightest. Kissing the ring (loyalty above qualification) will not be required.

I also promise to clean up our streets, stop the rampant crime and violence by hiring the 60 police officers we are currently short. I will also prioritize fully staffing our prosecutor’s office (only 1/3rd staffed). I also promise no more back room deals. I will actively engage the Assembly and find common ground.

Thank you,
