Judge Dismisses Lawsuit Seeking To Block Certification Of Alaska Senate Race If GOP Incumbent Loses

Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan, an ally of President Donald Trump, faces Democratic former U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola in one of the country’s most closely watched races, with Senate control at stake.

联邦法官驳回司法部试图在共和党参议员Dan Sullivan败选时阻止阿拉斯加参议院选举认证的诉讼，司法部随即表示上诉。案件围绕同名候选人Dan J. Sullivan是否被招募为“诱饵”以分流选票展开，涉及州选举权与联邦干预的边界。
