Peltola campaign seeks dismissal of DOJ election lawsuit before Alaska vote

The Justice Department sued Alaska, arguing that voters could confuse Sen. Dan S. Sullivan with candidate Daniel J. Sullivan and that the state should not certify results under certain circumstances.
Peltola’s campaign and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee asked the judge to set deadlines for briefing their dismissal request, with a decision sought before Election Day.
The DOJ has not explained how an investigation could establish voter confusion before certification.
