Alaska Senate Race Legal Twist

Alaska Senate Race Legal Twist

Published 3 weeks, 4 days ago
Description

Alaska’s Senate race just got wilder: two Dan Sullivans are running, and election officials tried to disqualify one — claiming his candidacy lacked “good faith.” But a judge shut that down, saying Alaska law doesn’t even allow such a vague rule. The drama? The challenger’s name matches the incumbent’s — a coincidence he admits to, but says he’s genuinely upset with current policy. Election officials accused him of party-switching and Democratic ties — claims he denies, and Democrats are pushing back. With ballots due in August, the state may still appeal to the Supreme Court — but for now, Dan J. Sullivan’s back on the ballot.
