‘Independent’ Alaska Senate Candidate Admits Behind Closed Doors He’s Actually A Democrat, Just Claiming Independence To Get Elected

A U.S. Senate candidate in Alaska bills himself as an “independent,” but he told Democratic donors behind closed doors that he’s actually “to the left” and is only claiming to be an independent now in the hopes it will get him elected.

The Washington Free Beacon reported that Al Gross, who is challenging incumbent Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK), made the admission to Democratic donors on Wednesday.
