Trump team files lawsuit to block certification of Alaska Senate race if Republican loses
Many in both parties believe the midterm fight could come down to Alaska, where Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan faces Democrat Mary Peltola
CNN
What the coverage shows
All the outlets frame the story around the Justice Department’s lawsuit to block certification in Alaska if Dan Sullivan loses, with several noting the unusual wrinkle of two candidates named Dan Sullivan on the ballot. CBS News, NBC News, ABC News, Axios and The Guardian US emphasize the preemptive legal move, while the New York Times calls the filing highly unusual and Al Jazeera is the only outlet to foreground possible Democratic win concerns and broader meddling. CNBC alone adds Trump’s claim that he ordered the suit.
