In late January, a state court ruled that the attempted recall of Anchorage Assembly Chair Felix Rivera can go forward. Using almost identical reasoning to the courts decisions in the lawsuit over the recall of Gov. Mike Dunleavy, Superior Court Judge Dani Crosby said that it s up to Midtown Anchorage voters to decide whether the grounds stated by recall proponents are sufficient cause to remove Rivera from office. It s not a coincidence that the decisions in the two cases were so similar under Alaska law, although recalls must have cause, there is no minimum threshold for that cause. And although under the Alaska Constitution, voters are meant to decide the recall on the legal grounds stated, in practice, it s a referendum on how voters feel about Rivera and Dunleavy.
