2 Dan Sullivans on the ballot? It’s actually happened before 1:12

Alaska's ballot has raised a curious question: could two candidates named Dan Sullivan appear on it at once? Ben Ginsberg, a longtime Republican election lawyer, says the situation is not without precedent. Appearing on CNN's The Source with Kaitlan Collins, he pointed out that Sen. Dan Sullivan has previously had a namesake listed alongside him on an Alaskan ballot. The clip, published October 25, 2026, runs one minute and twelve seconds.

CNN's politics coverage that Sunday also featured other midterm-season conversations. Florida Republican Rep. Carlos Gimenez said he wants to spare his children and grandchildren from confronting a nuclear Iran, in a segment lasting five minutes and forty seconds. A separate report, running two minutes and twenty-five seconds, explored why Democrats see a path to victory in Mississippi's midterm election. Haley Stevens also appeared on State of the Union to discuss Michigan's Senate contest. Together, the items show the network's Sunday politics lineup spanning Alaska, Florida, Mississippi and Michigan.
