Could Anchorage Mayor Ethan Berkowitz run against Don Young this year.

Rumor has it that the National Democrats have asked Anchorage Mayor Ethan Berkowitz to run against Don Young. Recently the Anchorage Assembly has made Forrest Dunbar chair which if Ethan wins Forrest would become interim mayor.  Forrest actually would like to become mayor of Anchorage.  Since his election in 2016 Ethan has groomed him for higher office.  In the 2008 and 2014 election that Don Young between Ethan Berkowitz and Forrest Dunbar.  Don Young received only 50 percent of the vote.  Imagine if Alaska was affect by the Blue Wave.  Could Ethan actually pull it off.  Remember if Mark Begich had actually gone for this seat instead of the US Senate he would had won due to the Alaskan Native.  Could Ethan be able to win in places like Hooper Bay, Aniak, Chevak, Ahkiok and Ambler.  Remember in statewide elections it is the Alaska Bush communities that decide who your leader is not the Alaska Railbelt where the population is.
