Report: Left-Wing Donors Bankroll ‘Decoy Dan’ Sullivan in Alaska Senate Race– legalinsurrection.com

EXCERPT:
The New York Post found that progressive donors have primarily funded the super PAC supporting Republican “Decoy Dan” Sullivan in Alaska’s Senate race.
Sullivan is known as “Decoy Dan” because he filed to run using the same name and party affiliation as incumbent Republican Alaska Sen. Dan Sullivan.
The news fuels theories that Democrat operatives put Sullivan on the Alaska ballot to confuse voters, especially as the race between Sen. Sullivan and former Democrat Rep. Mary Peltola has grown close.
The super PAC is called Right for Alaska:
New financial disclosures support that theory. Right for Alaska, a super PAC that has spent close to $1.15 million to support “Decoy Dan,” took in approximately $990,000 from the left-wing Sixteen Thirty Fund, according to Federal Election Commission data.
Right For Alaska, whose mailing address is located in the Twin Cities suburb of Hudson, Wis., also got $1.8 million from the Liberty Force Action Fund, a dark money 501(c)(4) that doesn’t have to disclose its donors.
Both Right for Alaska and the Liberty Force Action Fund list as their treasurer a man named Thomas Datwyler — previously linked to lying former Long Island Rep. George Santos (R-NY).
Datwyler did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
