Is Forrest Dunbar ready to become the next mayor of Anchorage

Is current East Anchorage Assemblyman current chair of Anchorage Assembly ready for Mayor Forrest Dunbar.  Prediction is that Ethan will not complete that final term.  The last interim mayor Matt Claman overloaded all the union contracts which gave us Ordinance 2013-037 which never became law because the Unions wanted to repeal it instead of save money which was the intent of the Sullivan administration.  Matt Claman never survived the primary.  If Ethan decides to run for congress unlike back in 2009 when Mark Begich won as US Senator when there was an automatic mayors election the following year.  This time is Ethan runs and defeats Don Young.  He will not be able to keep his assembly seat and be able to see if he stays as mayor.  His assembly seat is up for election in the same year.  Until April 2019 he will have play dual roles of course they could fill his assembly seat by him resigning.  Remember in 2009 Matt Claman never resigned his assembly seat.  Question who would replace Forrest on the assembly by appointment.  Remember since Forrest was elected to the assembly Ethan has trained him and groomed him to be the next mayor of Anchorage.
