It is not just the Republicans who have gone from “ridiculing” to “fighting” . . .

 

Note: Cean Stevens is the Libertarian candidate for Alaska State House District 19.

Hello Norm Olsen


Chicago Style Bullying & Intimidation Tactics

The Alaska Libertarian Party has been provided with written correspondence and signed affidavits of eyewitness accounts of Garen Tarr’s attempts to remove, destroy and block campaign signs belonging to Cean Stevens.


Email correspondence with Cean Stevens:

Subject: Hardworking & Effective

Cean,

While having dinner at Hula Hands this evening we watched Geran Tarr drive up, take your sign out of the ground, replace it with hers, and put yours behind the bushes. This must be the "Hardworking" part of her slogan. Hopefully it won't be "Effective."

Best regards,
Eric

 

Subject:Re: Hardworking & Effective

Eric,
Was there someone else with you when you saw Geran take down my sign and would you be willing to sign an affidavit for me so that I can report it to APOC? Someone, (not sure if it was a Hula Hands employee or a nervous Geran) put the sign back. See attached photo :)
Thanks so much,
Cean Stevens


 

Subject:Re: Hardworking & Effective

Cean,

I would be willing to sign the affidavit you mentioned, but my work takes me out of the country for long periods (I'm leaving Sunday the 14th for at least four months). However, my wife and a friend were there, both witnessed the event, and I know they would both be willing to sign. It's best to contact my wife, Peggy, by phone at XXX-XXXX to discuss this. It wasn't Geran or an HH employee that put your sign back, it was Hardworking and Effective fans.

Yes you may use my letter if you wish.
Good luck in November! I will have my absentee ballot.

Cheers,
Eric

BTW: This incident netted Cean a $100 donation.

There have been more signs removed & damaged since the above incident.

 

Subject: Question For APOC :)

Hi Delight,
My opponent was witnessed removing my yard sign, throwing it in the bushes and replacing it with her sign. I had a lot of damage, destruction and missing signs during the 2012 election. I just assumed that was normal for all candidates. I have since found out, the amount I had is not normal.

1. What are the penalties for her doing this?

2. What do I need to do to file a formal complaint?

Thank you for always answering my questions, I know you are super busy.

Sincerely,
Cean Stevens



Good morning Cean,

I am sorry to hear of this. Because sign vandalism isn't found under the statutes and regulations APOC oversees, it would not be the agency to seek recourse through. Please consider contacting your local law enforcement about this incident.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have other questions about
Alaska's campaign disclosure laws. I would be glad to assist you to the
best of my abilities.

Sincerely,
Delight K. Mells

The ALP is urging Cean to file a complaint with APD. Anyone witnessing vandalism of Cean Steven’s signs please contact her at 830-7310 with time, date, location and description of the perpetrator. If you can get photos or video it would be appreciated.  Thank You

Geran Tarr did the same during the last election cycle. Below are photos of her bullying and intimidation tactics.

Burned Sign

The Alaska Libertarian Party demands State Representative Garen Tarr, Democrat running for reelection in District 19, to immediately cease her use of despicable campaign tactics.

This behavior is extremely unethical and must stop immediately. Behavior like this is a poor example for our community and to our children.

What kind of person is Geran Tarr? Where does Geran Tarr draw the line to win an election? Do we want someone like Geran Tarr representing us?

For more information about Geran Tarr’s unethical practices visit the Tundra Onion <http://www.alaskalibertarian.com/dadamail/dada/mail.cgi/r/ALP_News/212148364908/norman.olsen/lp.org/>  Face Book Page and look up the articles about her and Mark Begich.
