Two Sullivans Battle for Alaska Senate | Anchorage News

A quirky Alaska Senate race is heating up as retired teacher Dan Sullivan from Petersburg fights to stay on the ballot—despite a legal challenge claiming his name would confuse voters with incumbent Senator Dan Sullivan. The Alaska Supreme Court sided with him, leaving the ballot naming decision to the Division of Elections, who must act fast before ballots print tomorrow. The challenger, now ready to hit the trail and raise funds for legal costs, faces off against the incumbent’s campaign, which called him a “sham” and “fraud” while hoping voters can still tell them apart. With Election Day looming and ballots due to go live soon, Alaska’s election officials are in a race against time to avoid voter confusion.
