Sullivan, who often flies on government jets, attacks Peltola over first-class commercial seat

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.”

This “man of the people act” reeks of desperation. The leader of Team Sullivan has an estimated net worth of between $5 million and $12 million, which puts him in the top third of the U.S. Senate wealth rankings.

Here is his financial disclosure report.

Former Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger had the right take on Sullivan’s third-rate attack:

“Free upgrades are expected when you fly that much and shed be absolutely stupid to not take it. Dan Sullivan flies on govt 737s ALL THE TIME, which is fine, but way more costly.”

Kinzinger said he has flown on government jets with Sullivan and this was a “cheap and desperate attack.”
