The Republican governor of Alaska has ordered an investigation into an alleged “scheme” which led to two Dan Sullivans standing in the state’s US Senate race.
Governor Mike Dunleavy said he was responding to a New York Times (NYT) storywhich said the team of Democratic candidate Mary Peltola worked with people who tried to recruit spoiler candidates in the Senate race.
The governor’s post on X said he would investigate “whether this scheme violated Alaska’s laws”. He did not say which laws he had in mind.
