Today, Wednesday, June 3, 2026, in a page A5 article by Alex DeMarban titled "US Senate and House races set, with over 30 candidates and the batlle of the Dan Sullivans," the Anchorage Daily News mentions that Richard Grayson, a member of the Green Party, is running for the U.S. Senate in Alaska's August 18, 2026 primary.
Today, Thursday, March 26, 2026, an article in NOTUS (News of the United States) by Dave Levinthal, "Mary Peltola's House Campaign Spent on Airfare, Hotels and Meals as She Eyed a Senate Run," mentions Richard Grayson's Green Party candidacy in the election for U.S. Senator from Alaska in its last paragraph:
Alaska’s Senate primary — a ranked-choice voting affair where the top two vote-getters advance — is scheduled for August 18, with a Green Party candidate, Richard Grayson, and another Republican candidate, Dustin Darden, also declared. The general election is on November 3.
The Alaska Democratic Party has indicated that though no Democratic contenders have filed to run as of Thursday, it plans to field candidates in both congressional races.
“We’re working on candidate recruitment,” Alaska Dems Executive Director Jenny-Marie Stryker said in an interview Wednesday. “There’s lots of planning that’s happening on our side, and we’re going to be ready for those races.”
Though no candidate with Democratic Party backing has entered the race, several people have filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission indicating plans to place their names on Alaska’s ballot.
Among them is Richard Grayson, an Arizona resident who filed to run for Alaska’s U.S. Senate seat as a member of the Green Party. He is attempting to form a fundraising committee titled “Sophisticated Cosmopolitan Anti-Fascist Brooklynite Richard Grayson for Alaska Senator.”
