BREAKING: “GIVE THEM TO THE REAL DAN SULLIVAN!” Trump doubles down on his OUTRAGEOUS demand to hand thousands of Alaskan voters' ballots to his preferred Republican candidate as Democrats inch closer to flipping another Senate seat!
Donald Trump can’t help but to have at least one election tantrum following his party’s election blowout, and this time it is clearly Alaska in his psycho sites.
In a Truth Social rant last night, he demanded that Alaska simply take thousands of votes cast for other candidates and give them to the Republican senator he's desperate to save.
“Dan Sullivan PLUS Dan Sullivan wins the Alaska Election by thousands of votes,” Trump raged.
“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!).”
To be sure, there were two Dan Sullivans on the ballot in Alaska -- the incumbent GOP Senator Dan S. Sullivan and schoolteacher Dan J. Sullivan Jr., whom Trump accuses Democrats of recruiting to confuse voters.
At the moment, Democrat Mary Peltola leads the incumbent by roughly 2,500 votes, while the “other” Sullivan has received more than 3,600 himself.
But Trump isn't satisfied with stealing away the namesake candidate's votes. He also wants the nearly 4,900 ballots cast for a fourth candidate, Gerald Heikes, handed to his man as well.
“There should be no question concerning this Rigged Election. Time is of the essence!!!” Trump declared.

The ranked-choice count is scheduled to begin November 18.
Until then, Trump will apparently have to endure the unbearable indignity of letting Alaskans decide their own election. The nerve
