Early Returns: "Leftist, Democrat-backed" candidate leads City of Palmer mayoral race

[RandySF]

WARNING: MAGA site, Enjoying the agony.


The left-leaning former Palmer Mayor Jim Cooper may be headed back to the mayor’s office if his election-night lead holds up.

The socially liberal Cooper, who is backed by Mat-Su Democrats, is leading his nearest challenger, John Alcantra, by a vote of 157 to 103.

According to the early returns, only 7.18% of registered voters turned out, and there are still 261 early, mail-in, questioned and special needs ballots yet to be tallied.

Past social media posts indicate that Cooper is openly pro-abortion and supports the LGBTQ political agenda.

1. "The LGBT Agenda"? Being treated like other citizens of the United States?

Sheesh.

That said, - and while Palmer sure as shit isn't Wasilla it isn't exactly the Portland of the north.

Good news all around from Alaska!
