Republican Dan Sullivan wins reelection in US Senate race in Alaska

Source: CNN

(CNN)Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan will win reelection in Alaska, CNN projected Wednesday, defeating independent Al Gross, who was running with the backing of national Democrats.

Sullivan joins the growing ranks of Republican incumbents who have successfully defended seats that Democrats targeted this year in their efforts to win the Senate majority. Democrats are now looking to what is expected to be two Georgia runoff races in January as their only remaining shot at winning a majority in the chamber.

Sullivan, first elected in 2014, highlighted his record in the Senate to argue that he has delivered for Alaskans and attempted to portray Gross as a far-left liberal.

Gross, in contrast, attacked Sullivan's record in Washington and emphasized his own medical background as a doctor while pushing a message that he would work to improve health care affordability and access amid the coronavirus crisis.

Sen. Sullivan is a fucking tool, even if he shares a name with my Dad.

Alaska will never WTFU until they stop having their bread buttered by the lower 48.
