Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Mary Peltola’s campaign on Friday sued Alaska elections officials in an attempt to get access to records involving absentee ballots in Tuesday’s general election, asserting that the state is violating the Alaska Public Records Act.
“The campaign is ensuring transparency, timeliness, and accuracy as the counting process continues and every Alaskans’ voice is heard,” the Peltola campaign said in statement about the lawsuit.
The Alaska Department of Law has not filed a response to the lawsuit, but said in a statement Friday afternoon that state law does not require the release of the information and that the agency plans to fight in court to keep the information protected.
The Peltola campaign is “seeking access to preliminary absentee ballot information” that shows whether absentee ballots for specific individuals are likely to be accepted or rejected — preliminary data that the division has long treated as confidential, said the statement provided by Department of Law spokesperson Sam Curtis.

Shut up and take it.
She’ll win.
Peltola herself should be invested for fraud. I believe she is behind running the fake Dan Sullivan to draw down votes from the Republican Dan S. Sullivan.
Unfortunately, it does look like she’ll win - b/c of the fake candidate:
Alaska Senate
75% reporting
Mary Peltola 48.63% 106,321
Dan S. Sullivan 47.48% 103,804
Dan J. Sullivan 1.67% 3,651
They may be worried. This sounds like a campaign that may not e overly confident. If she is declared to winner the GOP better demand a total recount and push the fake Dan issue to its limit.
I’d also look hard at the other guy, Gus Heilke or something like that. He’s got more votes than the fake Dan running as a republican. He has openly stated he was approached by a guy for the Midwest about running. All expensive paid, just put your name on the ballot. It turns out the guy is a Democrat operative working on her campaign. So, there are two cases of her campaign running fake republican candidates to muddy hthe waters.
