Mary Peltola, Alaska’s Democratic Senate candidate, has paused campaigning ahead of the US midterm elections after sustaining “minor injuries” in a car crash.
Peltola, 53, and her family were travelling to an event on Saturday when the vehicle they were in was hit by another driver, her campaign said in a statement.
She is running in one of the most closely watched races in the elections, which take place on 3 November – one that could help decide the balance of power in government.
