Former Democratic Rep. Mary Peltola again claimed victory in her Alaska Senate race against Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK), after the latest ballot dump increased her lead over the incumbent.
The race had yet to be called as of Saturday morning, with the Associated Press reporting 98% of votes have been counted. Peltola was leading the field with 49.8% of votes as Sullivan trailed at 46.1%, about a 10,400-vote difference. Two other candidates, Republican Gerald Heikes and independent Daniel J. Sullivan Jr., had garnered 5,885 and 4,560 votes, respectively.
