Summary
Ballots are in chaos as two Dan Sullivans race for office — one challenger, one incumbent — and election officials are stuck on how to distinguish them without confusing voters. The sample ballot lists the challenger as “Sullivan, Daniel J. Jr.” with no party, while the senator appears as “Sullivan, Dan S. (Registered Republican) Incumbent,” a move that breaks standard rules. The challenger’s team argues this unfairly strips his party label and violates ballot neutrality guidelines. With ballots set to print today, the Division of Elections is racing to resolve this before voters head to the polls — a behind-the-scenes mess that could sway election outcomes.
