Sullivan Accuses Peltola's Campaign of Recruiting Decoy Candidate to Confuse Alaska Voters

Sen. Dan Sullivan, R-Alaska, calls the "Decoy Dan" situation a "scandal of the highest order." He made that accusation on 'The Big Weekend Show.' The controversy centers on Daniel J. Sullivan Jr., a candidate sharing the incumbent senator's name. Reports suggest operatives linked to Mary Peltola’s campaign helped recruit him. Their goal? To confuse voters and split support for the sitting Republican. Peltola and her team deny any involvement. State and federal investigators continue probing the allegations. The stakes are high for Alaska's Senate race. Voters face a tricky ballot. Names matter. Confusion breeds chaos. Sullivan insists the timing is suspicious. He points to the direct link between Peltola’s camp and the new candidate. The denial rings hollow to many observers. Investigations proceed on multiple fronts. No one has been charged yet. But the damage to public trust grows daily. This is not a minor slip-up. It is a calculated move, Sullivan argues. The public deserves clarity. They deserve honest elections. The "Decoy Dan" saga exposes deep fissures in Alaska politics. Watch closely. More details will emerge. The fight for transparency intensifies.
