Miller to Announce Plans Friday; Owes AK $16K; Election Law Might Change

Former US Senate candidate Joe Miller will be holding a press conference this Friday to announce his next legal move, his campaign and the Anchorage Daily News reported tonight. His options are: federal appeal, state election contest, or concession. Further, the State of Alaska is seeking $15,957.55, in legal fees from Miller's team to cover 20% of its legal expenses in fighting the Miller case. The state is permitted to collect 20% of the full $79,722.50 incurred. Finally, Alaska State Sen. Bill Wielechowski, D-Anchorage wants to change the state's election law to specify that voter intent will be the standard used when counting write-in ballots.

Miller's press conference is Friday, December 31, 2010 at 1400 (2 PM) AKST at 607 West Northern Lights Blvd. Anchorage, AK 99503. For media questions email Randy DeSoto at randy@joemiller.us.
