Peltola denies knowing about Alaska spoiler candidate Dan J. Sullivan
The Justice Department escalated a criminal probe with new grand jury subpoenas as Peltola said she knew nothing about the ballot effort.
- Democratic candidate Mary Peltola publicly denied having any advance knowledge or involvement in an alleged effort by Democratic operatives to recruit a second candidate named Dan Sullivan onto the Alaska Senate ballot.
- During a campaign stop in Juneau, Peltola pushed back against media reports and Republican claims, stating, "I knew nothing about any other candidates on the ballot except for me and the incumbent. That is all I have ever known about. I am not interested in tricking voters. I know I can beat Dan Sullivan".
- The controversy stems from the presence of third-place primary candidate Daniel J. Sullivan Jr. on the general election ballot alongside incumbent Republican Sen. Dan S. Sullivan, leading to accusations from Republicans of intentional voter confusion.
- The U.S. Department of Justice issued federal grand jury subpoenas targeting individuals associated with Peltola's campaign, while Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy launched a state-level investigation into potential election manipulation.
- President Trump called for the DOJ to preemptively block certification of the Alaska Senate election results if Sullivan loses, while Vice President JD Vance and senior GOP figures publicly demanded Peltola be investigated and removed from the ballot.
