Money in this race

From FEC filings for 2025–26. Outside spending is money a group spends on its own about a candidate — TV and online ads, mail, canvassing. It is not a donation to the campaign, and the candidate does not control it. Supporting means it was spent to help that candidate win; Opposing means it was spent to defeat them, usually on attack ads. Groups report it within 24 or 48 hours as the election nears. Raised is the campaign's own fundraising, as of its latest quarterly report. Largest donors come from each outside spender's own FEC receipts, with each donor's share of its itemized receipts; donors under $100,000 are not named.

Plain Folks AppealLoaded LanguageAppeal to FearBlack-and-White FallacyCard StackingGlittering GeneralitiesAppeal to Prejudice50.0% of sentences flagged

Plain Folks Appeal: Attempts to convince by presenting the speaker as an ordinary person to gain trust and relatability — for example: struggling to make ends meet.

Loaded Language: The phrase 'irreversible sex change surgeries for kids' uses emotionally charged and provocative language designed to trigger a strong negative reaction rather than convey neutral facts — for example: 'irreversible sex change surgeries for kids'

Appeal to Fear: The sentence implies that taxpayer money is being used to harm children through irreversible medical procedures, creating anxiety and alarm to provoke a strong emotional response — for example: 'irreversible sex change surgeries for kids'

Black-and-White Fallacy: The rhetorical question frames the issue as a binary: either you oppose Dan Sullivan or you support spending tax dollars on these procedures, leaving no room for nuance or context — for example: 'So why did Dan Sullivan spend our tax dollars on irreversible sex change surgeries for kids?'

Card Stacking: The sentence juxtaposes the prior claim about struggling Alaska families with an unverified or misleadingly framed claim about Sullivan's spending, implying a direct causal link while omitting context or counterevidence — for example: 'our tax dollars on irreversible sex change surgeries for kids'

Glittering Generalities: The sentence uses vague, emotionally positive language about protecting children and finances without specifying any concrete policy or action — for example: 'protect our kids and our paychecks'

Appeal to Prejudice: The use of 'our' creates an in-group identity implying shared ownership and values, positioning Heikes as a defender of the community's collective interests — for example: 'our kids and our paychecks'

Appeal to FearLoaded LanguageAppeal to PrejudiceBlack-and-White FallacyName CallingGlittering GeneralitiesScapegoatingFalse Urgency80.0% of sentences flagged

Appeal to Fear: Sets up an emotional premise about economic hardship to prime the audience for outrage in the following sentence — for example: framing families as 'struggling to make ends meet'

Loaded Language: Uses emotionally charged and politically loaded phrasing to provoke a visceral reaction rather than convey neutral facts — for example: 'irreversible sex change surgeries for kids'

Appeal to Prejudice: Invokes 'our tax dollars' to create an in-group identity of taxpayers being wronged by an out-group action, exploiting identity-based resentment — for example: 'our tax dollars'

Black-and-White Fallacy: Implicitly frames the situation as a binary: either families get help or money goes to the described surgeries, ignoring the complexity of budget allocations — for example: juxtaposing struggling families against the alleged spending

Name Calling: Uses a derogatory and politically charged label to discredit Dan Sullivan rather than engage with policy substance — for example: implying he personally funded 'sex change surgeries for kids'

Glittering Generalities: The sentence uses vague, emotionally positive language about protecting children and finances without specifying any concrete policy or action — for example: 'protect our kids and our paychecks'

Scapegoating: An unnamed 'they' is blamed for wasting public funds on culturally objectionable projects, deflecting from complex policy debates — for example: 'Their obsessions, funded with your money'

False Urgency: The phrase 'It's time' creates artificial urgency implying the moment for action is now and cannot wait — for example: 'It's time for a senator who answers to Alaska'

Loaded LanguageName CallingScapegoating33.3% of sentences flagged

Loaded Language: The words 'pocketed' and 'sold out' carry strong negative emotional connotations implying corruption and betrayal rather than neutral descriptions of campaign contributions or policy decisions — for example: 'pocketed hundreds of thousands' and 'sold Alaska's fishermen out'

Name Calling: Dan Sullivan is implicitly labeled as corrupt and a traitor to his constituents through the framing of the sentence, discrediting him without addressing specific policy arguments — for example: 'sold Alaska's fishermen out'

Scapegoating: The sentence implies a simple causal chain where corporate money directly caused harm to Alaskan fishermen, reducing a complex policy issue to a single actor's betrayal — for example: 'pocketed hundreds of thousands from corporate trawlers, then sold Alaska's fishermen out'

What this page is

  • An ad is on this page because its own "Paid for by" line is a campaign in this race; or it comes from a national Senate group and ran mostly in AK; or it ran mostly in AK and names a candidate — unless its sponsor is a campaign for some other office. Ads from outside groups appear alongside the campaigns' own.
  • Campaigns run one text as many separate ads. Identical text from the same sponsor is one card here, marked with its number of variants.
  • A technique is a specific manipulative move in the wording, found by our model and explained in one line. It is not a claim that the ad is false.
  • Claims are checked when a reader asks: press "Check this ad's claims" on a card. The check runs once and its result is shown to everyone afterwards. The ten ads with the most money behind them in each race are checked ahead of time.
  • Claim verdicts say what the cited sources say. A verdict that an ad is wrong or misleading is shown only when it cites an established fact-checker or an institutional record — Congress, a federal agency, a court — and its confidence is not low; a weaker one is not shown at all. Each verdict shows what it rests on and how confident it is. If we got one wrong, press Disagree: a verdict that readers dispute and no one defends comes down.
  • Video ads come from the campaigns' own YouTube channels; the transcript is analyzed. Meta ads are analyzed on their text; their video and images are not, yet.
