Attorney General Todd Blanche defended the Trump administration's lawsuit aimed at blocking the certification of Alaska's Senate results if Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan loses. Appearing on CNN's 'State of the Union' on Sunday, Blanche argued that the legal challenge was necessary to prevent voter confusion.
The lawsuit follows President Donald Trump's remarks on Friday indicating he personally directed the action, stating he was 'the one that said do it.' Despite the timing on the cusp of the November 3 election and the intervention in state election procedures, Blanche maintained that the administration is not attempting to meddle in or overturn Alaska's election results in any way, shape, or form.
