President Donald Trump is calling for the criminal prosecution of the Democratic candidate running for Senate in Alaska after revelations that her campaign appeared to be involved in recruiting a candidate with the same name as Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan. The New York Times relied on text messages and interviews for a report Wednesday showing that Democrat Mary Peltola's campaign coordinated with Democratic operatives to recruit a man named Daniel J. Sullivan to compete on the ballot with the incumbent. Sen. Sullivan said his opponent needs to “come clean.” At a campaign stop Wednesday, Peltola called the report a ”distraction."
