Political career
Sarah Vance began her political career as Co-Chair and spokesperson [1] for Heartbeat of Homer, a local recall campaign against three members of the Homer City Council in Homer, Alaska. The group campaigned to recall 3 members of the Homer City Council over transparency complaints. The group accused the city council [2] members(Donna Aderhold, David Lewis, and Catriona Reynolds) of lying to the public about the intention behind an "inclusivity resolution", which the group alleges was an attempt to declare Homer a sanctuary city. All three council members retained their seats by wide margins. [3]
Vance ran for the Homer City Council in 2017, finishing third.[4]
Vance defeated incumbent Representative Paul Seaton in the 2018 general election. [5]
Vance is running for re-election on November 3rd, 2020. Running against Vance as an undeclared candidate is Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly President [6] Kelly Cooper.
