Trump vows to use legal tactics to bar second Dan Sullivan from Alaska Senate ballot

Donald Trump announced on his Truth Social platform that he is considering “powerful legal options” to disqualify Daniel J. Sullivan Jr. from the Alaska U.S. Senate ballot, claiming the candidate’s name confuses voters alongside incumbent Dan S. Sullivan. Sullivan Jr., a retired teacher, registered as a Republican only after the Alaska Independence Party dissolved late last year. Trump alleged that Democrats deliberately backed the candidacy and criticized the court for allowing it, labeling the situation a “scam.”

He warned that even a small percentage shift could affect the outcome, describing the scenario as election cheating. While he did not specify the legal avenues, Trump said the move aims to ensure fairness and hold the opposing party responsible. The story remains developing with further details expected.
