Judge Dismisses DOJ Lawsuit to Delay Alaska Senate Election Certification
A U.S. District Judge Sharon Gleason dismissed the Justice Department's lawsuit seeking to delay certification of Alaska's Senate election results due to the presence of two candidates named Dan Sullivan. The judge ruled the federal government lacked authority to require segregation of ballots and noted concerns over voter secrecy and the timing of the request, as many ballots were already cast. The Justice Department plans to appeal, while former President Trump criticized the ruling, calling it "meritful."
