A candidate for the Democratic Party's nomination for president is coming to Alaska, according to his supporters.
It is not Sen. John Kerry, the party's presumptive nominee, but U.S. Rep. Dennis J. Kucinich of Cleveland.
Kucinich will be visiting Anchorage this week in advance of the Democratic Party's Anchorage-area caucus on Saturday, said Christine Reichman, a musician who said she's the local contact for the Kucinich campaign.
The candidate will arrive late Wednesday night and will spend Thursday in Anchorage before leaving for Kenai on Friday, Reichman said. He will fly back to the Lower 48 after that.
The plan calls for Kucinich to speak in Anchorage and to give people a chance to hear him and shake his hand, Reichman said. Details of those arrangements have yet to be made, she added.
The Kucinich campaign also is considering having the candidate return to Alaska the following week for appearances in Fairbanks and Juneau, which have their caucuses on March 20, she said.
