[0:00] All right. Now, stay with me here. The
[0:01] Justice Department is vowing to appeal
[0:04] the dismissal of its lawsuit, which
[0:07] would have delayed certification of the
[0:09] Alaska Senate race in the event that
[0:11] Republican Senator Dan Sullivan loses.
[0:14] You got me. The race has been mired in
[0:16] controversy over an independent
[0:17] candidate also named Dan Sullivan. The
[0:20] New York Times report alleges Democrat
[0:22] Mary Pela's campaign recruited the
[0:25] independent. That's a claim Palto
[0:26] denies. CBS News justice reporter Jake
[0:29] Rosen joins us from our DC bureau with
[0:31] the latest on this. Jake, good morning.
[0:33] Tell us more about what's playing out in
[0:35] Alaska right now and where it's likely
[0:37] to go.
