“or 2,169 votes, when ballots challenged by Miller’s campaign were excluded”
Seems moot, if a true statement.

Even if he does not win, it is not mute if he can slap down the state officials for breaking the law. If we allow lawlessness to continue then we are banana republic.

That’s the final vote count and would be certified had not Miller began the appeals process. But the question becomes of the votes counted did they all meet the letter of the law regarding what is a valid write in name? That is Miller’s basic argument that many of the votes counted failed to meet the letter of the law. We’ll see shortly as I don’t think the AK courts want to delay this process as it would or could impact the senority of Murkowski if she is the one to be seated this next term.

Well, there are many, many problems with this election that could make up that 2,169 also. For instance:
Over 5000 Votes in Alaska’s U.S. Senate Race Not Verified

If that many votes are problematic that weren’t even challenged, and there were all those problematic challenged votes, this US Senate race should be recounted under strictly observed rules comporting with existing AK election law.
There are other irregularities, too. Like the 10th voter in a precinct seeing “hundreds” of filled out ballots in a ballot box, thousands of votes that were cast by people who were not properly identified, and other things.
