Alaska Governor Announces Criminal Investigation of Senate Race

Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy has ordered a criminal investigation into the state's closely watched Senate race. Simultaneously, the Department of Justice has issued up to three dozen subpoenas as part of a separate federal probe. This federal investigation focuses on an alleged plot by Democrat Mary Peltola’s campaign to sabotage the campaign of Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan. These dual investigations are examining activities surrounding the midterm election involving both candidates in the state of Alaska.
