Regular readers probably realized that I was blogging much less today than usual on a Supreme Court election law decision day. That was part because of some personal commitments this morning and partly because I was the keynote speaker today at the LACBA Appellate Courts section luncheon honoring the CA Supreme Court. My topic was the role of facts and evidence in US Supreme Court election cases, and this morning’s McCutcheon decision required a bit of a rewrite before the lunch. So I’m behind. My first take on the McCutcheon opinion is here at Slate, and I’ll have further analysis at SCOTUSBlog tomorrow.
In the meantime, Howard rounds up some of the early stories as does Eric Brown.
