The Trump administration has filed a lawsuit to block certification of the U.S. Senate race in Alaska if Republican Senator Dan Sullivan loses the contest, while another candidate with the same name is on the ballot, kicking off what many fear could become a lengthy battle between the government and states over certifying an election when the president's party is struggling.
Goes on to say here of the Alaska Supreme Court rejected a previous Republican effort to remove Daniel J. Sullivan from the ballot and the state's Republican officials made the decisions about how to list him on the ballot.
He will appear without a party designation next to his name, while the senator will be listed as a Republican incumbent.
Alaska's ranked choice voting system also allow voters to select both of the men if confused.
Goes on to say here in a quote from the DSCC that Donald Trump knows that Dan Sullivan is going to lose the election.
So now his Department of Justice is filing a sham lawsuit to overturn the will of Alaska voters and steal an election when he loses.
I have more responses from party officials coming up, but I'm going to tell you right now, we searched for more commentary from people who are, I would assume, consider themselves to be leaders of the party.
Now, let's just get into the constitutionality of all this, because Derek Muller, a law professor at the University of Notre Dame, said, I'm

The statute simply doesn't let the Department of Justice enjoy in certification.
Mueller said the lawsuit could well be mooted by a wide Democratic victory or narrow Republican one.
So it could very well be that this is something we're not even have to worry about, but it's not even about the fact that it may or may not happen.
It's about the fact that they're trying, okay? And so if they're doing this out in the open, what are they doing behind closed doors? Now I'm going to just say, Mary Patola is on what is called Keith's cheat sheet.
If you want to help make sure that we have control over the house and over the Senate, it is one of the best ways you can make sure that your money is as impactful as possible.
