Alaska Democrat Mary Peltola's Senate campaign recruited a man named Dan Sullivan to run against incumbent Sen. Dan Sullivan — is that a fair campaign tactic?
The New York Times reported that operatives for Alaska Democratic Senate candidate Mary Peltola recruited a man named Dan Sullivan to run against Republican incumbent Sen. Dan Sullivan, apparently to confuse voters; President Trump has called for the campaign to be prosecuted.
If you're voting "fair game," where's your line — recruiting a same-name candidate is fine, but what about one who shares the opponent's hometown too, or his old campaign slogan?
