Democrat Mary Peltola’s campaign reportedly recruited second Dan Sullivan in Alaska Senate race

A report alleged that people aligned with Democrat Mary Peltola's campaign helped recruit a candidate with the same first and last name as Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan. Peltola denied the allegations.

Alaskans for Mary said it "has no involvement with either Sullivan campaign."
