Sen. Dan Sullivan, a rich man born to a rich family from Cleveland, is taking shots at Democratic challenger Mary Peltola for a picture someone took of her flying first class, claiming this puts “Alaska last.

You may have noticed that the three Republican candidates are on the run from the record of Gov. Mike Dunleavy.
They have nothing to say about the shape Alaska is in after nearly eight years of Dunleavy’s watch, except that Alaska is headed in the wrong direction.
They won’t say that Alaska is better off today. The only politician making that claim is Dunleavy.

If Donald Trump makes good on his threat to “help” Sen. Dan Sullivan’s sagging fortunes by visiting Alaska on Bribe Force One, expect the same tired shtick from the old guy.
The Man of Gold will brag about himself, pause for a moment to lie that he won the 2020 election, then resume the boasting marathon.

HOSPITAL CAMPAIGN: The tiny print on some new ads for Sen. Dan Sullivan featuring numerous shots of Fairbanks Memorial Hospital says that Steve Frank is not speaking for the hospital foundation when he speaks about the hospital. But most people won’t read or notice the fine print.
Frank is the treasurer of the Fairbanks Community Hospital Foundation and a loyal Sullivan supporter. Injecting the hospital into the Sullivan campaign is a mistake.

If Kyle Reardon is confirmed as a federal judge for Alaska, every court decision that he will make during the rest of his life dealing with matters of the law, truth and fact—which means every one of them—will be have to be measured against his inability to tell the truth about the 2020 election while testifying before the U.S. Senate.
Read MoreThis is one of the best chances for voters to become more informed about the candidates and what they would like to do if they are elected on Tuesday October 6.
This is a real public service by the League of Women Voters, KUAC and the Daily News-Miner. It should be an example for public radio stations elsewhere and for Alaska Public Media to follow.
