n yet another blow to Alaska Republican Joe Miller's Senate campaign, a judge ordered Saturday that his contentious employment records be released later this week.
Judge Winston Burbank ruled in favor of a local news outlet's lawsuit to unseal Miller's employment records at 4 p.m. Tuesday unless the Republican appeals his case to the state Supreme Court — a decision that was still in question Saturday night.
Miller's employment records when he was a part-time attorney at the Fairbanks North Star Borough have been a controversial issue in the Alaska Senate race, which has become a competitive three-way contest. Polls show Miller and Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who is running a vigorous write-in campaign, in a dead heat — with Democrat Scott McAdams trailing them by a few points.
Depending on what the employment records reveal, their release could come as yet another hit to Miller after a rough couple of weeks on the campaign trail — much of which has been at the hands of online reporting outlet Alaska Dispatch, which sued for release of his employment records.

Silly mortals..
We all know voters don’t decide elections, Judges do..
speechless....just trying to figure out what is lower than pond scum because that’s what this podunk blogger and Dems are.
This is an Alaska state judge acting in an Alaska state court about matters in Alaska.
This is not a federal court with a federal judge.
What you need to do is take a deep breath, drop your hands to your sides, relax, show us you understand the concept of jurisdiction.
BTW, this is a Republican judge and I'm sure he'd give you Obama's records personally if he had any of them.
Is Joe countering or we just going to go along to get along. Murkowski and her Washington friends have the upper hand sounds like. Damn RINOS!

As Stalin said, it’s whoever counts the votes that determine the outcome..................
You should take a trip to Hawaii to ambush the ol'gal there who won't give them up. She's certainly vulnerable, and you could probably get away with it ~ don't know if you'd get any records, but she wouldn't be doing that again.
And how many judges at the state level have refused to make Obama prove his eligibility? More than a few.
Another excellent reason to NEVER take a Government job.
If your paycheck is coming out of the public purse, your
employment files can be considered public record.
So soe one has STANDING to get his personal records?
Maybe he should OFFER HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE (serious about that one)
Stunning. And no one I know of has ever seen a legitimate birth certificate from the Poser in Chief.
from what I understand, he wouldn’t mind releasing the records if he was also released from his attorney-client privilege so he could actually TALK about what happened.
What the GOP needs to realize is that this pattern of personal attacks will continue, and be even worse in 2012. The GOP candidates need to divulge EVERYTHING, no matter how minor, how little and get it out when they first announce their candidacy. Remember W’s DWI just before the vote in 2000? Noem in SD almost blew it because of some speeding tickets..if she had put it all out when she first announced..it’d be no big deal..properly handled, it can be a PR plus..here I am, warts and all, but I’m running on the issues..etc..
Appointed to the bench by Murkowski's father.
BTW, broke on FR on Saturday. See previous stories here:
She is going to steal that seat isn’t she?
Since when can a RETIRED judge make any decisions???
podunk blogger = Democrat operative or Murkowski employee. Kind of like the million "mom" march was a spontaneous happening.
You need to go to Kenya to get the records there.
He was NOT born in Hawaii. PERIOD!!!
