Liz Forsman - the people of Alaska voted to move the capitol to the mainland 40 years ago, but balked at what the Juneau bureaucracy said it would cost. When we discussed moving the capitol we were clear about one thing - Anchorage already had enough power as the population center without adding stop-on-your-lunch-hour-to-talk-to-a-legislator access to the Legislature. Sessions should be moved to the mainland, but somewhere other than Anchorage to be equitable to the entire state. That is one reason most states do not make their population center the capitol.

And, no, I'm in Fairbanks and not particularly interested in having the sessions here. Maybe Glennallen or ... we voted on this too ... Willow (or nearby Wasilla). Although, I'm pretty sure UAF could find meeting space for the Legislature if it came down to it.
