Alaska's Senate race rocked by leaked videos, China ties and even a dead bear.

While Gross is technically an independent, Democrats are backing him as part of the party’s efforts to gain a majority in the closely divided Senate. And their battle has been roiled by a series of controversies, including leaked videos and a dispute over an alleged bear attack.

Gross, whose father was the state’s Democratic attorney general in the 1970s, has leaned on his colorful background in his effort to unseat Sullivan. His ads have described him as having been “born in the wake of an avalanche” and claimed he “killed a grizzly bear in self-defense after it snuck up on him.”
