Not again...
The following from today's CQ Midday Update:
The Juneau Empire reports that, following the success of the California recall, activists in Anchorage, Fairbanks and the Kenai Peninsula will meet this weekend to craft a ballot initiative to recall Republican Gov.
Frank H. Murkowski. Soren Wuerth, 38, a former chairman for the Alaska
Green Party and an Anchorage activist, listed Murkowski's elimination of Longevity Bonus payments to seniors and his decision to appoint his
daughter, Lisa Murkowski, to his vacated U.S. Senate seat last year as two reasons to recall the governor. The governor's spokesman, John Manly, said the group has no legal grounds for a recall, which the state constitution permits only for lack of fitness, incompetence, neglect of duties or corruption.
