Alaska GOP Considers Removing One of Two Dan Sullivan Candidates from Senate Ballot

Alaska's lieutenant governor and the chief elections official are both Republicans. They have opened an investigation into the Senate race. The probe centers on a challenger sharing the name Dan Sullivan with the incumbent. Officials suspect the challenger may have coordinated with a Democrat. The alleged coordination could be intended to confuse voters. The investigation will assess whether ballot rules were violated. If misconduct is confirmed, the challenger could be removed from the ballot. The outcome could shape the upcoming Senate contest in Alaska.
