Alaskans Against Government Mandates has more than five times the money as the ballot group supporting an initiative requiring parental notification for minors seeking abortions. In disclosures filed with the state, Alaskans Against Government Mandates reported having about $107,000 on hand as of Friday; much of its contributions have come from Planned Parenthood. Alaskans for Parental Rights, which supports the proposed initiative, reported about $19,600. It has drawn support from numerous GOP candidates, but chairman Jim Minnery issued a plea for more money, saying the opposition was "inundating the airwaves," and there is a "real chance" the initiative will fail. Alaskans Against Government Mandates faces complaints alleging it didn't follow new requirements for campaign ads. The group says it's moved to correct that.
