Trump says 'we are looking into' other Dan Sullivan on Alaska ballot, warns about governor's race
President Donald Trump tells Fox News that Dave Bronson, a Republican running for governor, should drop out after falling to his preferred candidate in the GOP primary.
PBS NewsHour
What the coverage shows
Most outlets frame the Alaska stop as a campaign trip aimed at boosting Republicans in a surprisingly competitive Senate race, with NBC News, CNN, The Hill and the Washington Post all emphasizing how unusual the battleground looks. CBS News, 60 Minutes and one NBC News report instead foreground the onstage pardons, and CBS calls them an unusually public use of clemency. The Guardian’s later items are more focused on the Alaska race and the “real” Dan Sullivan, while PBS NewsHour only appears with a live campaign label.
