INTRO: A controversy stemming from the race for an Alaska U.S. Senate seat. Democratic nominee Mary Peltola and her campaign face accusations of backing an independent candidate named Dan J. Sullivan in order to confuse voters intending to support the incumbent, Republican Senator Dan S. Sullivan. With less than a week until the midterm election, Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy, a Republican, joined “America Reports” with his reaction.
ACK: Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy (R)

The Real-Clear-Politics Poll Average places Democratic candidate Peltola 1.2 percentage points ahead of GOP Senator Dan S. Sullivan.
