Feds Address Dirty Dem Plot To Dupe Voters In Critical Alaska Senate Race

U.S. Attorney Michael J. Heyman and FBI Anchorage Special Agent in Charge Matthew Schlegel held a press conference Friday about the ballot scheme involving Mary Petola’s campaign. 

“Anyone who tries to illegally deceive voters and interfere with the election will answer for it,” Heyman said. “We are aware of the recent New York Times reporting regarding the Petola campaign and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee that they orchestrated a sprawling conspiracy, to recruit and prop up Daniel J. Sullivan as a sham candidate, and we are taking that extremely seriously.”

The federal response comes after the Justice Department sent subpoenas to Democrat Mary Peltola’s Senate campaign and the campaign of the second Dan Sullivan running in Alaska following a report that leftist operatives recruited the challenger to confuse voters and draw votes from the Republican incumbent, Sen. Dan S. Sullivan.

A U.S. official told NBC News that investigators had issued at least three dozen new subpoenas and document preservation requests. 

The Associated Press reported that the DOJ had issued grand jury subpoenas. ABC News reported that prosecutors are investigating whether the effort to put the second Sullivan on the ballot could violate federal conspiracy statutes.

The reporting matches Heyman’s assertion about a surge of federal resources going into the investigation. 

“This new information has resulted in a significant surge of law enforcement assets to Alaska, and I have assigned several attorneys in my office to assist in the matter as well,” he said. 

Heyman said he was recused from the case until yesterday, saying he’s now the lead attorney investigating the matter.
