The Anchorage Assembly will meet at 11 am on Friday in a special meeting to set a recall election date for one of its members: Meg Zaletel, who represents District 4, Midtown.
The Assembly will decide if the special election for that district will be held Nov. 2 or Nov. 9.
Zaletel is one of the members of the leftist group controlling the Assembly.
Although the charges against her are narrow — breaking the executive order during meetings last summer by allowing more people in the Assembly chambers than were allowed, she has drawn the ire of many for her government-knows-best approach to Covid and homelessness and her repeated opposition to Mayor Bronson; Zaletel worked on the Forrest Dunbar for Mayor campaign.
