- Summary: «In three one-page orders, Superior Court Judge William Pittman affirmed the December rulings of the State Board of Elections. Democratic Associate Justice Allison Riggs maintains a 734-vote lead over Republican rival Jefferson Griffin after more than 5.5 million ballots were cast and two recounts. [/] Pittman entered the orders only a few hours after listening to arguments by lawyers for Riggs, Griffin and the State Board of Elections. The hearing marked another step through a legal jumble on the outcome of the race, which is one of but a few unresolved nationwide from the Nov. 5 elections.»
