Story summary

As of October 29, 2026, Mary Peltola's Democratic campaign and senior officials from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) are under investigation by the DOJ for allegedly recruiting a second candidate named Dan Sullivan, to confuse voters in Alaska's Senate race against incumbent Republican Sen. Dan S. Sullivan. The New York Times reported that this effort, which included finding individuals with the name "Dan Sullivan," aimed to sow confusion among Alaskan voters. President Donald Trump has called for Alaska to change its ballot due to this situation, deeming it unfair. Republican Governor David Becker and Senator Lisa Murkowski have also expressed concerns over what they describe as a ballot-stacking scheme, while election law experts are weighing in on the legality of having two candidates with similar names on the same ballot.
