Trump heads to Alaska in a sign of how close its Senate race may be

President Donald Trump is conducting an unusual campaign trip to Alaska as the midterm elections approach. This visit highlights the competitiveness of a Senate seat that was previously a Republican stronghold but is now firmly in play. Trump will rally with incumbent Senator Dan Sullivan, who faces a challenging contest against former Democratic Representative Mary Peltola. Recent polling indicates that Peltola is a strong contender just three weeks before the scheduled midterm elections take place.
