Top-four primary held August 18; the general is ranked-choice. A second, unrelated Dan Sullivan was also on the primary ballot. Below: every kind of piece — news, opinion, press releases, letters, digests and blogs — from the national press that name a candidate in this race, coded to Defense (CAP major topic 16), since collection began in May 2026. A name anywhere in the text counts, so a piece need not be about the race. Pages that are not articles are left out.
