Donald Trump visited Wasilla, Alaska to press Alaskans to back the incumbent Dan Sullivan and warn about a rival with a nearly identical name, as reported by The Guardian. Sullivan will be up against the Democratic challenger, Mary Peltola, a former U.S. House lawmaker.
Recent polls have shown a close competition between Peltola and Sullivan, who are joined on the upcoming ballot by another candidate named Daniel Sullivan, a retired schoolteacher also running as a Republican. “On November 3, we’re going to send one of the best and most respected senators in DC, Dan Sullivan, the real Dan Sullivan,” Trump told the crowd.
