Peltola denies knowing of 'any other candidate' on ballot besides herself, incumbent

Democratic Senate candidate Mary Peltola has denied any knowledge of an attempt to put another candidate with the same name on the Alaska ballot, as the Justice Department intensified a criminal probe through new grand jury subpoenas. Peltola also dismissed involvement in any efforts to put another Sullivan on the ballot. The Justice Department issued subpoenas to California officials on Oct.

21 and Oct. 24, demanding documents and communications related to alleged noncitizen voters on the state's rolls, as well as any efforts to prevent noncitizen votes from being counted. The subpoenas were issued by all four U.S. attorneys in California and come amid heightened scrutiny of local election administration in the state.
