Two candidates are running to fill the Anchorage Assembly seat vacated by the outgoing Pete Petersen.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska -
Registered non-partisan George Martinez, who has experience both running for political office and working for a former special assistant to an Anchorage mayor, is running against political newcomer Spencer Moore. “I haven’t seen a vision,” Martinez said when asked what he’ll do differently if elected to the Assembly.
“I’m kind of just fed up with the current Assembly and just not being able to get things done, not being able to productively push legislation,” Moore said. “A lot of things getting mired in delays and things like that. It got me motivated to get in and run and just provide some balance.”
