    Joe Miller files appeal; takes election challenge to Alaska Supreme Court
    By Sean J. Miller - 12/13/10 05:22 PM ET

    Republican Joe Miller is continuing his legal battle over the outcome of the Alaska Senate race.

    Miller filed an appeal Monday of the lower court ruling against his lawsuit challenging how the state counted write-in ballots for Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska.).

    The state Supreme Court is set to hear arguments in the case on Friday, according to The Associated Press.

    Murkowski was declared the winner last month, but the state is legally barred from certifying the results thanks to an order from a federal judge.

    She leads Miller by more than 10,000 votes, and even if all of the write-in ballots challenged by Miller were to be thrown out by a judge, he would still have no clear path to victory.

    I tend to pull for the underdog and she sure fit that description in this
    contest.She was written off by her own Party, but the people she represents
    spoke up loud & clear & supported her return to Congress. I like that.
