Sullivan Wins Senate Seat in Alaska

November 12, 2014 · 6:46 am ET · 2 Comments

Dan Sullivan (R) has defeated Sen. Mark Begich (D) in Alaska, according to the Associated Press.

“The Alaska race was too close to call on Election Night last week, with Sullivan up by about 8,100 votes, but it became evident Tuesday when the state began counting about 20,000 of absentee and questioned ballots that Begich could not overcome Sullivan.”
