Recall Jamie Allard Group Exceeds Signature Goal

Oh boy.

The Recall Jamie Allard Group, sans one [sad trombone,] set up shop at an Eagle River grocery store today to gather signatures needed to advance their recall effort.

According to a social media post by the group, it appears they had no problem securing the signatures of Eagle River residents, which means the group will soon be submitting their recall petition to the Anchorage Municipal Clerk.

Contrary to the narrative some far-Right blogs may peddle, not everyone in Eagle River or outside the Save Anchorage group is a fan of Ms. Allard. On the contrary, Allard is seen as somewhat of an embarrassment by those she does not consider a constituent—which appears to be anyone who didn't vote for her.

In a public online exchange with the embattled Assembly member earlier this year, Eagle River resident Ivan Hodes found out rather harshly that Allard didn't consider him a constituent despite living in her district. Allard wrote, "You are not my constituent. You are someone who didn't vote for me."

To drive home her point, Allard wrote again to Hodes, "No, you are a voter. Not my constituent."

In less than a year, Ms. Allard has made international headlines for defending Nazi terminology on Alaska vanity license plates, has fabricated her own Facebook deplatforming, was kicked off the Alaska Human Rights Commission by Alaska Governor Dunleavy, and more recently labeled all transgender individuals as mentally ill.

Allard has even exhibited concerning displays of hostility towards other members of the Anchorage Assembly.

In a brief interview today, Recall Jamie Allard group member Chelsea Foster told me that some familiar individuals aligned with the Nazi-sympathizing Assembly Person even dropped by to "check out" the recall group's signature-collecting effort!

Foster also told me that after asking a shopper whether she would be interested in sponsoring the recall petition, the woman snapped at Foster, telling her, "No. Never!" angrily adding, "you're in the wrong place."

Allard doesn't appear to be a fan of Foster, once accusing her of being "a bit of a stalker and obsessed" with her. Allard commented on the Reclaim Midtown Facebook page, where sometimes things are taken out of context or blown out of proportion.

Anyway, it's full steam ahead for the Recall Allard group. You can expect more information about the recall from the group in the coming weeks.
