Alaska Lower Court State Judge Rules that State was Correct to Count Murkowski Write-ins with Imperfect Spelling

On December 10, a lower state court in Juneau, Alaska ruled that the state was correct to count write-ins for Lisa Murkowski even when the spelling was imperfect.  See this story.  Joe Miller, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate, and who filed the lawsuit, will probably appeal to the State Supreme Court.  Here is the 34-page ruling.

UPDATE:  also on December 10, the state filed this request with the federal court, asking that the federal stay be lifted.
