Meet Dan Sullivan, the retired schoolteacher running for office who insists he’s not trolling sitting Senator Dan Sullivan

A retired schoolteacher named Dan J. Sullivan is running for Alaska's U.S. Senate seat against another candidate with the same name, Dan S. Sullivan, a sitting Republican Senator. Dan J. Sullivan was initially removed from the ballot but reinstated by the Alaska Supreme Court after claims he was a sham candidate working with Democrats to confuse voters. Local residents in Petersburg, where Dan J. Sullivan lives, reject the accusation and support his candidacy.
