Sullivan is fighting to stay on the ballot against GOP establishment claims he’s a sham candidate working with Democrats. Despite the state’s initial attempt to disqualify him — citing lack of good faith — the Alaska Supreme Court ruled he must remain.

He’s pushing for change, frustrated with the incumbent’s disconnect from Alaskans and concerned about economic policies, insisting he has every right to run — even if he’s technically an independent.
