Knowles the Undoer?
The Reuters news service reports this evening that former Democratic Gov. Tony Knowles, who has announced his campaign for a return to the job of Alaska governor, wants to “undo” the natural gas line agreement put forward by the current governor.
From Reuters:
“We just need to start from scratch,” said Knowles, a Democrat who served as governor for two four-year terms, from 1994 to 2002.
“(The state needs) to open it up to all parties who express an interest, to lay out conditions under which we want to see it developed and take the best proposal.”
