A Plan for Two Dans: How Democrats Manipulated Alaska’s Ballot
An investigation by The New York Times looked at how two people named Dan Sullivan ended up on the ballot for the Senate.
What the coverage shows
Most outlets converge on a ballot-controversy frame, saying the Justice Department is now involved in an Alaska Senate dispute over a second Dan Sullivan, with CBS News, NBC News, ABC News, Reuters and The Guardian all emphasizing subpoenas or an investigation. Coverage diverges mainly in emphasis: the New York Times and CNBC foreground allegations about Peltola’s campaign and ballot manipulation, Fox News and NBC stress the governor’s probe, while NPR is the outlier for shifting away from the scandal and into the race’s policy stakes.
