Mary Peltola Appears Likely To Defeat Both Dan Sullivans in Alaska's Senate Race
Democrat Mary Peltola is running for Alaska's Senate seat against Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan. Peltola's campaign has been accused of participating in a "ballot-stacking" scheme, which prompted a Department of Justice lawsuit that could challenge her victory if she wins. Prediction markets and early results show Peltola leading by about 500 votes, and some Republican officials have suggested she may not be seated even if she wins the race.
