The Senate race in Alaska has taken a bizarre turn as Republican incumbent Dan S. Sullivan faces a challenger with the same name, threatening to siphon off critical votes. President Donald Trump has intervened, urging voters to support the 'real' Dan Sullivan.

A Cessna 441 charter plane crashed near a remote radar site in western Alaska. There were two pilots and six passengers on board. The plane departed from Anchorage and was en route to Cape Newenham. The circumstances of the accident are still unknown.

Two candidates named Dan Sullivan are running for a Senate seat, and one of them even had to fight in court to appear on the ballot. Republicans claim that the candidate with the identical name is intended to confuse voters and split the vote. Now, the US Department of Justice has issued subpoenas as part of an investigation into the affair.
