Pig Roast Protesters Move On To Salmon BakeDespite a boisterous crowd oinking and yelling outside his annual pig roast fundraiser last week, Rep. Don Young (R-AK) is holding a public event this afternoon in Anchorage. The same anti-Young crowd is expected to attend.
The state’s only congressman will serve up baked salmon to anyone interested in stopping by, a move that made one local political strategist cringe, according to an AP story.
The cringing is pretty reasonable, seeing that John Farleigh, the Alaska native who organized the last Young protest, is rounding up the troops for another assembly at the salmon bake. Farleigh left me a message last night saying he has already spoken with local media and has high hopes that the added pre-protest publicity will work in his favor.
If you’re planning to snap photos at the event this afternoon, please send some our way!
