Could US voters be confused by two candidates named Dan Sullivan on the ballot in Alaska's Senate race. New York Times' reporting suggests there was an elaborate scheme by Democratic party operatives to get another Dan Sullivan on the ballot against the Republican incumbent.

So are voters confused, and what could the reporting about the second Dan Sullivan mean for the result?
