După o dezvăluirea a presei din SUA, Trump cere descalificarea candidatei democrate la Senat din Alaska: „Nici falsul Dan Sullivan nu ar trebui să candideze”
Donald Trump has called for the disqualification of Alaska's Democratic Senate candidate, Mary Peltola, following allegations that her campaign encouraged a candidate with the same name as the incumbent Republican senator to run, potentially siphoning votes. Polls show Peltola with a slight lead ahead of the midterm elections. Trump's accusations suggest illegal actions by Peltola's campaign, which she and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee deny. Trump has also initiated legal action against Peltola and the other candidate. A former campaign staffer has retracted statements made to the New York Times regarding the campaign's actions, although the paper stands by its reporting.
