President Donald J. Trump said on Truth Social on Tuesday that Sen. Dan Sullivan of Alaska “wins the Alaska Election by thousands of votes,” and alleged fraud and confusion in how votes were counted.

“All votes going to the Fake Dan Sullivan, which was done solely for the purpose of fraud and confusion, should immediately be given to the Real Dan Sullivan (Senator!) - Likewise the votes of the second fraudulent candidate, also put up by the Dems,” the president wrote. “There should be no question concerning this Rigged Election. Time is of the essence!!!”

The statements are the president’s claims as posted on Truth Social. The race’s official certification had not been completed, and this newspaper is reporting what the president said, not an independent finding of the result.
