The Hill reports that Mary Peltola has widened her lead over Sen. Dan Sullivan in Alaska's Senate count to 2,517 first-choice votes, up from 637, with tallying expected to continue for days and a runoff possible under ranked-choice rules. The race drew a spoiler candidate sharing Sullivan's name, whose presence prompted a Justice Department suit later dismissed, while President Trump, in a Truth Social post, called the vote "rigged" and demanded votes for "the Fake Dan Sullivan" go to the real one.
