The Anchorage Assembly voted on Tuesday night to certify the results of the municipality’s April 5 election, and two new members joined the body for their first meeting.
over 70,000 people cast a voteFormer assembly member Crystal Kennedy, who represented District 2 and opted not to run for reelection this cycle, served for the last time at the previous assembly meeting. Kevin Cross took her place on the body during Tuesday’s meeting, and Randy Sulte took the place of former assembly member John Weddleton representing District 6 after new and reelected members took their oath of office.
Weddleton was the only incumbent to lose his bid for reelection, against a conservative challenger backed by Mayor Dave Bronson. Before he left the dias and was replaced by Sulte, who participated in Tuesday’s meeting telephonically, Weddleton’s fellow assembly members thanked him for his service and dedication to Anchorage.
“You’re an exemplary public servant,” LaFrance told Weddleton. “And frankly, your shoes are unfillable.”“The job up here, the duty we have, the burdens we carry — you can’t understand until you sit in one of these seats,” he said. “And you should always remember that. I know I will.” “Staff has addressed all but the Omnibus Complaint, which was referred to the Municipal Attorney,” the memo reads. “Many of the complaints concern the Vote at Home/Vote by Mail election system, which is established in Municipal code and which the Elections Team is trying to implement.”
