## Key points

- The writer alleges Peltola’s campaign used a dirty tactic in Alaska.
- The passage provides no details or evidence for the allegation.
- It says Democrats’ wider Senate gains should not erase the claim.

## Summary

The opinion article argues that the Democrats’ midterm gains should not overshadow what it describes as a dirty election tactic in Alaska. It alleges that Mary Peltola’s campaign worked with out-of-state operatives to mislead voters, and says the episode should remain a stain on the party’s reputation.

The passage gives no details about the alleged tactic or evidence for the claim. It says Democrats had flipped at least seven other Republican Senate seats and would control the Senate regardless, but argues that electoral success does not erase the alleged conduct.
