Dem bucks party over alleged Alaska vote-siphoning effort: 'Neither party should be doing it'

Iowa Democratic gubernatorial nominee Rob Sand is criticizing an alleged effort by Democrats to "siphon" votes from a Republican senator, calling the tactic "manipulating the political system" as the controversy consumes Alaska's bruising Senate race.

Sand was asked by Fox News about allegations that Democrats have boosted unaffiliated Alaska Senate candidate Daniel J. Sullivan Jr., whose name closely resembles that of incumbent Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan, in an effort to draw votes away from the senator.
