The recall campaign against Gov. Dunleavy, and the defense, are accelerating even before certification


The gubernatorial recall campaign against Gov. Mike Dunleavy is intensifying this week as the governor takes to national conservative media outlets and recall proponents use this week’s Alaska Federation of Natives convention as a platform to spread their message.

The Alaska Division of Elections is more than two weeks away from a decision on the validity of the recall effort against the governor, but both the governor and those seeking to recall him have begun what amounts to an unofficial campaign season.

At last weekend’s Valley Republican Women Chili Cookoff, Dunleavy told attendees that he intends to travel to New York and Washington, D.C., “to do some of the shows that you will watch on some of the conservative channels and have a discussion about Alaska. They’re very interested in Alaska.”

Recall proponents, meanwhile, have focused on this week’s Alaska Federation of Natives convention in Fairbanks, where Cook Inlet Region Inc. has supported a booth intended to offer information and collect signature pledges for the next round of the recall. Airport Equipment Rentals, the state’s largest supplier of heavy equipment for the North Slope oil fields, is scheduled to host a Thursday night fundraiser headlined by the company’s owner, Republican Jerry Sadler.
