FairVote

The Trump administration has filed a lawsuit seeking to block the certification of the US Senate election result in Alaska. The move targets a contested Senate race outcome, though details of the legal arguments and which result is being challenged remain limited. Election groups such as FairVote have flagged the case, and it is likely to fuel fresh disputes over the integrity of the 2024 election process.

FairVote has released an analysis of statewide election recounts covering the period from 2000 to 2025. The study compiles and reviews recount outcomes across US states over 25 years, offering data on how often recounts occur and whether they change results. Interest in recount data typically rises around contested elections and close margins.
