Today’s bombshell New York Times report on the “Decoy Dan” (or “Dans Sullivan”) effort in Alaska is finally turning attention to the travesty underway in the Last Frontier. It seems that the effort to find a fake Dan Sullivan with which to confuse voters was not only intentional but far-reaching.

My friend, former colleague, and former chairman of the Federal Election Commission, Sean Cooksey, and I argued at the outset that it may in fact be criminal. This new reporting does nothing but expand the scope of the conspiracy that the Department of Justice should be investigating.
