The Department of Justice filed an extraordinary lawsuit seeking to block the state of Alaska from certifying the winner of its upcoming U.S. Senate election in the event that incumbent Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan loses.
The lawsuit, filed Thursday, cites what is suggested is likely voter confusion from having another Republican candidate, Daniel Sullivan, on the ballot in the race.
