It is time for East Anchorage to remove George Martinez from office

 

Last April a majority of East Anchorage residents decided that George Martinez, Jr should serve another three year term.  

 

While George has been in office.  He has chosen to play with his New York friends in Puerto Rico on Anchorage taxpayers dime.  Event has nothing to do with Anchorage.  Thanks to Don Handleland, Eagle River and Chugiak Assemblyman for the evidence of this Puerto Rico event




 

The second those who contributed to George Martinez, Jr reelection campaign have been betrayed by his personal trip to South Florida by using their money for his personal benefit.  https://www.adn.com/opinions/editorials/2026/06/27/editorial-a-solo-strategic-planning-retreat-at-30000-feet/

East Anchorage District 5 had a chance to elect someone with transparency by the name of Cody Anderson.  

 

Here are the options we have in this district has George can take the high road and resign his seat then people in East Anchorage can select someone to fill the remainder of his term.   

 

The people of East Anchorage can file a recall petition to remove him from office by collecting signatures and have a recall election.  My prediction unlike Felix Rivera and Meg Zalatel in Assembly District 4 in 2021 where the charges are more concrete misuse of funds versus a disagreement in procedure.  If he does not survive the Municipal Charter does not bar him from running again to fill his seat again if elected.  You can not bring same charge to remove him again.  My prediction is he will not survive recall election. 

 

Remember George is a member of the Democratic Socialist of America who do not believe in defeat of crazy ideas.

It is time to vote for Common Sense to East Anchorage and Mountain View


 For the past three years East Anchorage has had a leader who has raised grocery prices, believes the bus shelter is the homeless shelter.  His name is George Martinez, Jr.  He does not listen to people of his district. He has moved his district backward not forward.  

Cody listens to the people of Anchorage.  He will make it less expensive for the people of East Anchorage by dealing with crime in East Anchorage this will lower grocery prices.  He will make it so homeless people will have to go to a shelter or go to jail.  Remember it is the homeless are mostly responsible for the shoplifting.  I see this everyday as a Customer Host at Debarr Walmart.  

Here are some videos showing him to be the candidate for the people

 

 


 

Time to elect Cody Anderson in the Anchorage Municipal Election.

It is time to vote no on Anchorage Special Anchorage School District Vote


 
Anchorage we need to vote no on the Special Election because the Anchorage School District has mismanaged  their money.  Here is the truth there budget is 2 and 1/2 times the Anchorage Municipal budget.  They are a subdivision of the Municipality of Anchorage they need to be 3/4 of the municipal budget.  Anchorage School District funding needs to be user based.  If they need to just tax the enrolled kids only.  If the taxpayer enrolls the child in private school that money should go to the private school and if the taxpayer home school the child then taxpayer should not have to pay that portion of the bill.  My little brother Jim who home schools his children has to pay property tax a school district that does not teach his children would be willing to pay an athletic fee for his children to participate in that districts sports.  I remember back in 2016 the Wenatchee School District asked them to enroll Christina as a Panther.  He told them do you know who my older brother unless you want him to blog about how you to refuse to allow his niece Christina to allow her to participate in the track unless I had her take some public school classes.  He pulled out my blog they said Mr Marion she can.  Christina at age 18 and Daniel at age 17 was on the Dean List at Wenatchee Valley College.  She earned a degree at age 18.  Here are the links to their items.  https://www.wvc.edu/news/2015-16/graduates.aspx and https://www.wvc.edu/news/2015-16/winterpresidentslist.aspx His property tax money to the Wenatchee School District should have gone to Wenatchee Valley College for both of his kids.  Money needs to follow the kid.  
Vote no on Anchorage Special Anchorage School District Vote

Legislatures can meet remotely for all Alaska sessions

Every legislator can meet remotely and stay in their communities they represent.  This will make it easier for each legislator to be accessible to their community.  The only times the legislators should meet together is when a member of the congressional delegation visits the legislature and twice a year when the governor makes a speech to the body.  

Imagine five times a year the legislature meeting at the Alaska Airlines Center when members of congress and the governor speaks to the legislature.  

 

Rest of the legislature can meet remote at the legislative office closest to where they live an example.  Senator Jesse Bjorkman can meet at the Kenai Legislative Information office and  Representative Jeremy Bynum can meet at the Ketchikan Legislative Information office.  This makes each legislature more accessible to the people they represent.  COVID-19 proved that people can meet remotely and be closer to the people.  This will save Alaska taxpayers money in capitol meeting expenses.

 

The Anchorage Caucus and staff can meet at the Wells Fargo Building at Northern Lights and Minnesota

Fairbanks Caucus and staff can meet at the Fairbanks Legislative Information office 

Mat-Su Caucus and staff can meet at the Mat-Su Legislative Information office in Downtown Wasilla
