The New York Times is reporting on a months-long investigation into the Alaska senate race [Gift Article Here].
Stunningly, the NYT is providing direct evidence that Democrat Senate Candidate Mary Peltola, in coordination with the DSCC and Marc Elias law firm, constructed the fraudulent Dan Sullivan candidate (pictured left) specifically to create confusion and help install a democrat in office.
“Text messages viewed by The Times show officials with the D.S.C.C. and the Peltola campaign communicating for months about the project.”
Obviously, the NYT no longer believes Peltola would win the race – and that’s the reason for their sunlight on the entire operation to manufacture the fraudulent candidate.
NEW YORK TIMES – In the summer of 2025, a staffer for Mary Peltola, the Alaska Democrat who was eyeing a run for Senate, received unusual instructions from top campaign aides: Find as many people named Dan Sullivan in Alaska as you can.
The staffer complied, combing through voter records to produce a list of Dan Sullivans from across the state.
This was no random request. Dan S. Sullivan is the name of the state’s Republican senator. And if the Peltola campaign or its allies could track down and persuade another Dan Sullivan to run for Senate, the confusion could cost the senator crucial votes on the state’s unusual, four-person ballot.
The plan worked. This spring, a retired teacher from a tiny fishing village along the Alaska Panhandle, reachable only by air and sea, announced his candidacy for Senate. His name was Dan J. Sullivan.
The Peltola campaign has repeatedly denied any involvement in his candidacy. But The Times has found, based on interviews and text messages, along with documents prepared for a potential lawsuit against the campaign, that not only did Ms. Peltola’s team work with people trying to recruit Mr. Sullivan to run for Senate, but the effort was much broader. The group worked to coax other would-be spoilers into the race, to dilute the incumbent’s support and help catapult the Democrat to victory.
The endeavor, which was internally called the ballot composition project, involved secret trips to far-flung Alaskan communities and the appearance of a mysterious Midwestern operative, who traversed the state using a fake name and made his pitch to would-be candidates over beers at brew pubs.
It also involved the Peltola campaign’s lawyers, as well as senior aides at the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, which directs the party’s campaign strategy in Senate races across the country. From Washington to Anchorage, those advisers participated in regular conversations about the effort and even considered forming a new political party to draw conservatives onto the ballot.

Isn’t this election fraud?
18 U.S.C. § 241 — Conspiracy Against Rights:
It criminalizes two or more persons conspiring to “injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate” anyone in the free exercise of a right secured by the Constitution or federal law. Courts have interpreted “injure” broadly to encompass obstructing, hindering, or frustrating the exercise of voting rights.
18 U.S.C. § 1343 — Wire Fraud:
If the recruitment, coordination, and campaign mimicry (e.g., the website design) involved interstate electronic communications, the scheme could be charged as wire fraud: a scheme to defraud voters of their right to cast an informed ballot, executed in part through interstate wires.
It would be nice to see Elias get charged.
It would be nice to see Elias get hung
With a very rough, uncomfortable rope
With barbed wire…..
I’d prefer tar and feathering, and then hung. But that’s just me.
Both him and Sullivan 2.0….I’d like to give them a tour of the Senoran Desert…
along with Weissman, Mary McCord, Samantha Power, Susan Rice, Valarie Jarett, et. al.
Nice? It is MANDATORY!! Only a Lawfare judge would go along with that!! Time for Harmeet Dillon to come in and take care of the Elias/Peltola problem!!!!!
Yes, it would. Way past time for that to happen.
It would be nice to see anybody get charged and arrested AND tossed in the clink.
Excellent points.
Only for Republicans. DemonRats get a pass!
They do not care about the rule of law. In their eyes, the ends justify the means.
That’s what their hero, Alinsky, said!
If this isn’t can you imagine how many states the DUMBOCRATS will be doing this in. You have to give the DUMBOCRATS credit, they continue to come up with new strategies to cheat to win because the messages suck so bad.
This ruse already hit the courts, and it was ruled valid. Can’t stop someone from running for office just on the face of having a similar name.
Fraud is punishable by a lengthy jail term. Why no arrests so far?
Didn’t you know or did you forget…..
Reminds me of when Big Mike Obama said “When they take the low road, we take the high road.” Makes me want to puke. Hell, they built the low road and it’s full of potholes!
You always make me 😀🤣!
Democrats are beneath the law.
you gotta hand it to the left, they never stop fighting and scheming and frauding. It’s the primary pillar of any leftist movement: lies on top of lies. Everything is deception and lies. If the GOP had half as much fight as the democrats do, our tits wouldn’t be so deep in the wringer.
Question now becomes, whatcha gonna do about it? Seems like laws were broken here, yes? More DOJ farting around? More leftist judges assigned to cases? And on and on……
Sure seems that way some days, doesn’t it, Felix?
But the Trump DOJ is taking action lately, thank the Lord!
Well, they’re trying to. So far, nobody is in jail.
Trying like hell anyway. Can’t seem to find a justice judge anywhere.
The more that things stay the same, the more they never change!
Until PDJT does a Bukele to the leftist Judges this will continue. Bukele himself has laid out the game plan for Trump to fix this mess.
Scumbags doing scumbag things. Just another day for leftists.
There’s an underlying but as yet undisclosed reason that the NYT is torching Peltola that is far larger than the AK senate race.
They’ve effectively nullified her as a future candidate for any political office. Ever.
Makes one wonder about her traffic accident a couple days ago.
There are no coincidences or happenstances.
Wonder no more…
According to what I’ve read by someone who smelled something fishy and investigated, that traffic accident occurred way before “two days ago.”
But this what Democrats do.
Resurrect an event, use it when politically necessary, make hay out of hoping that few to none were aware, and thus will swallow the manipulated timing whole.
But she wasn’t the actual originator or runner of the op. Maybe her near death experience has prompted her to sing.
I think we’re seeing more strategies in the Communist way to pervert people away from the conservative side by aligning Democrats to “pretend” they are conservatives then once they get an office they do the opposite.
We’re already seeing this with the candidates in Michigan and Texas who are deleting their Facebook post, having been told they’re way too radical.
God tells us to keep watch, the closer we get to the elections the more evil will rear its ugly head.
You didn’t mention the governor of Virginia!
I’m sure there are more.
Or New Jersey
Anastasia notes the comms eventually always resort to murder.
RICO conspiracy to undermine, defraud, and steal elections. Isn’t this what democrats and their media lapdogs have been saying doesn’t exist? And irony of irony’s, Marc Elias, who has sued everywhere he can fart in the wind, is involved in the very thing he has sued republicans about, over and over for 10 years. THIS, en-flames my cold anger.
Put this guy away, shut down his law firm, and take their money!
One also wonders if the DSCC is doing this, shouldn’t the President attack anyone in that group and say “see, they cheat. It’s in the NYT. I have been saying they cheat for 10 years and now the NYT confirms I was right.”
PDJT should demand that any media outlets who contradicted his election cheating claims, retract it or suffer the consequences.
Same as the H in Republican unfortunately.
Communism is the only ideology that must pretend to be something else in order to survive.
They know they have nothing of value to offer, so cheating becomes instinctive.
Dems using bare knuckle tactics with Sullivan 🙂
IYKYK
A Democrat campaign involved in election fraud? Shocking! Simply shocking!
I wonder how many more Democrat campaigns are flying under the radar?
Most all.
Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.
Nothing says “Our Democracy” like the deceptions of the Democommunist Party.
Again … so where are the indictments?
Well, we know that they’ll indict President Trump after the 2028 election. Does that help?
This is an old Dem trick that the Kennedys used in 1946 to help JFK win the primary. They found a janitor named Joseph Russo and got him on the ballot to draw votes away from a known politician with the same name.
They are talking about the half-baked Alaskan on the news and talk shows across the western half of Ohio today.
President Trump is right to damn the polls and get out the vote to continue our agenda of America First Under God.
A guy with a much smaller platform had a unique and thought provoking take on elections and on personal character development in support of President Trump and the nation. Here’s the link.

If Republicans would fight as hard as Democrats, most of the nation would be Republican.
The best that we have managed to do is send out Transgender flyers to parents all over Texas using a transgender orgs own materials. Its not bad, but we need a lot more fight, and a lot more light.
They’ve been saying it for years …………….. “What ever it takes.”
I know this is a dumb question but how low can these people go?
From Gunsmoke.
I’m so low I can walk under a snake’s belly (with my hat on?)
You know damn well Lisa Mur cow ski has DNA all over this “Rank” fraud
If Dana Bash were not a sock puppet, with Chris Licht’s entire arm up her ass all the way to her larynx, telling her, word-for-word, how to deflect and defend the egregious criminal fraud perpetrated on Alaskan voters by the entire Petola staff…
IF she were not that sock puppet, she would be mortified and disgusted with herself for her hit-piece-disguised-as-interview with AG Todd Blanche…an interview that arguably makes Bash complicit in said fraud and criminality!
But she is…and she’s not!
She (stupid) is what she is (stupid).
They, she, stupid people, can not learn when they are not listening!!!!.
MAGA
Gods blessings!
Wow! Surprising that the NY times is talking about this!
They usually go silent on this stuff. They would not want to everyone to be aware of the fraud. It makes Trump’s complaints of Dem fraud look more legit and would cause higher turnout for conservatives all across the country. Fewer democrats will turn out due to Peltola’s deceit.
Reading the article, I wonder if the NY times is getting out information about what is known to others who participated. As written, it sounds like a big operation.
“ It also involved the Peltola campaign’s lawyers, as well as senior aides at the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, which directs the party’s campaign strategy in Senate races across the country.
The “the mysterious midwestern operative” using a fake name also hints to shenanigans well .beyond Alaska.
AND WHAT CAN WE LEGALLY DO ABOUT THIS??? I KNOW OF NEFARIOUS WAYS THE DEMS WOULD END THIS FRAUD IF REPUBS TRIED IT!
Is the execrable Murkowski still defending this ploy?
You used the correct adjective, and, given her expertise in this sort of skulduggery developed throughout her own campaigns, I would be surprised if she wasn’t one of the first people this hive of villainy contacted in the furtherance of their plan. I can’t spit enough.
What’s up NYT???
The fake Dan Sullivan wasn’t just recruited, he was paid, and not just with a few beers.
Ranked Choice Voting was supported by Lisa “RINO” Murkowski, as that was the only way she was going to keep her spot at the trough. Now it’s going to cost her colleague a spot in the Senate.
It would be a wonderful thing if the DOJ could find laws broken, for fraud, election interference, or other crimes, committed by Marc Elias and the Marc Elias Law Firm, and involve them in lengthy and very expensive prosecutions for the next 2-6 years.
An the Russians are messing with our elections so say the Democracy screamers from the Hard Left!
Any money paid or promised
to reclusive Sullivan
for his participation ?
Of course this is voter/election fraud.
But neither wing of the UniParty has any interest whatsoever in prosecuting it as such.
And that’s exactly what our President is fighting against.
There is bound to be a Dan Sullivan who was approached but didn’t play ball. I hope he comes forward with his story.
Wasn’t it the Rino Senator “Ms. Stone Face” who engineered the rank choice voting in Alaska?
It would be nice to hold Marc Elias down and force raw pork chops down his throat.
“a mysterious Midwestern operative, who traversed the state using a fake name”
I wonder why the NYT does not disclose his name. They likely know who it is.
It makes you wonder, has any democrat ever won an election, big or small, without cheating?
This NY Times article comes out 2 days after the Attorney General, Todd Blanche, was asked about the lawsuit regarding the upcoming Alaskan election on Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan. He was not joking around.
I think this article came out now to throw Mary Peltola under the bus, stop and bleeding before it starts. The lawsuit via the DOJ will sniff around and turn over rocks and boulders. The DNC and elected Democrat politicians do not want to go near that. How many finance and election frauds might be found on current politicians?? They are saying make this stop and Mary go away. This goes all the way up the Democrat line (Schumer).
Also, this is Alaska, a tad removed from corrupt DC. Yes, the current fake senator is from there, but chances are, lots of Alaska isn’t so friendly to such.
Also, if a “certain” midwestern conspirator (initials M. E.) was actually in the state in possibly MAGA friendly areas, hmmm, fella, you stepped outside your safety zone. And if it wasn’t him personally, but emails/texts from Alaska? Well, wouldn’t that be so sweet.
These people are such scum.
