A judge in Alaska denied the Peltola campaign access to records for absentee ballots.

The Peltola campaignsuedAlaska last week over rejected absentee ballots as the decoy Dan Sullivan siphons thousands of votes.

The Associated Press reported that as of Thursday evening with 86% of the vote tallied, Democrat Mary Peltola is ahead of Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan by approximately 3,975 votes.

Peltola has 121,487 votes at 48.88% and GOP Senator Dan Sullivan has 117,512 votes at 47.28%.

The decoy Dan Sullivan has 4,100 votes at 1.65%.

On Wednesday evening, Superior Court Judge Thomas Matthews ruled against the Peltola campaign.

The Hillreported:

An Alaska judge denied a request from former Rep. Mary Peltola’s (D-Alaska) Senate campaign for a list of rejected absentee ballots amid the state’s competitive Senate election, which has yet to be called.
Superior Court Judge Thomas Matthews ruled that Alaska’s Division of Election (DOE) is “currently busy processing ballots from the 2026 general election” and “simply lacks the capacity to generate the report from” the voter registration database (VREM) at the Peltola campaign’s behest.
“Such electronic services are not mandatory, but permissive. And the request must be reasonable,” Matthews continued in his 17-page ruling. “Even if the request were otherwise considered reasonable outside the peak election time of year, it is simply not reasonable nor required right now.”
“Because of the difficulty in disclosing VREMS records, the DOE is not required to disclose VREMS records,” the ruling concluded.

The Justice Departmentlaunchedan aggressive criminal investigation into Daniel J. Sullivan. Federal prosecutors have issued more than 100 subpoenas.

The Trump Justice Department last Tuesday sent 20 criminal target letters to 20 Democrats, including notorious Deep State lawyer Marc Elias, over the Decoy Dan Sullivan scheme.

Marc Elias and other Democrats are the target of the Justice Department’s criminal investigation into whether Democrat operatives in the Peltola campaign were behind a plot to confuse Alaska voters by adding a spoiler candidate named Dan Sullivan to the ballot.
