DOJ Moves to Block Alaska Senate Results If Republican Loses | Trump Orders Lawsuit | N18G

In a dramatic preemptive move just weeks before the 2026 midterms, the U.S. Department of Justice has filed a lawsuit seeking to block certification of Alaska’s tightly contested U.S. Senate race — but only if Republican incumbent Sen. Dan S. Sullivan loses. The DOJ argues that the presence of another candidate named Dan J. Sullivan Jr. on the ballot could confuse voters and siphon support from the sitting senator, potentially handing the seat to Democrat Mary Peltola. #AlaskaSenate #DOJ #Midterms2026 #DanSullivan #cnncollabwithcrux CNN-News18 is your trusted source for breaking news, updates, and in-depth analysis from around the world.
