Alaska’s Decoy Candidate Linked to Dems & Bolsonaro Escapes To Miami | 10.29.26

In a bombshell report, it's been revealed that the second candidate named Dan Sullivan in the Alaska Senate race is a plant arranged by the Democrat Party.

That's a charge they've been denying for months.

The Trump administration, which has sued the state over the inclusion of the trick candidate, says this is out of bounds and undermines the voting process in the state.

Here to explain is White House correspondent Mary Margaret Olohan.

So, Mary Margaret, there's been a lot of denial from Democrats over the past few months that this second Dan Sullivan was a trick to take votes away from Republican Dan Sullivan.

Now we seem to have confirmation otherwise.

So let's start with that.

What is the documented link between decoy Dan and the Democrats candidate Mary Peltola?

Well, first of all, we just really can't underestimate what a massive story this is and what a huge deal Alaska is when it comes to this next election.

I mean, Alaska Senate race could really determine the control of the United States Senate.

And so I've had plenty of people tell me up there and back here in the swamp that there's a lot on the line when it comes to this Alaska election.

And what we're learning is that Mary Peltola's campaign was actively involved in literally going out and finding another Dan Sullivan to confuse voters so that they wouldn't vote for the Republican on the ballot.

And that's what the New York Times reported just yesterday morning.

They revealed that in the summer of 2025, a staffer for Mary Peltola received special instructions from top campaign aides to literally find as many people named Dan Sullivan in Alaska as they could.

And that plan worked.

And that's the crux of this New York Times story.

And everyone now is saying that the Democrats and Mary Peltola in Alaska are trying to rig this election.

As we said at the top, the Democrats have been denying any involvement in this.

Now we have this revealed.

And this is a really close race, correct? How close is this?

Yeah, this is a really close race.

Some polls have Mary Peltola ahead.

There's a few that have Dan Sullivan really neck and neck with her.

And so Republicans have known for some time that this is a really close one.

President Donald Trump went up to Alaska only a few weeks ago.
