“The History and Future of Election Law Symposium”

This looks to be a great event at Ohio State with an all-star cast that I unfortunately have to miss:

 

Please join us on Friday, November 20, for the Ohio State Law Journal’s 2015 Symposium: The History and Future of Election Law.

The goal of the symposium is to look systematically at the past in an effort to consider the possibilities of future developments in various areas of election law. There will be four panels: (1) The History and Future of Redistricting and Gerrymanders, (2) The History and Future of Campaign Finance, (3) The History and Future of Voting Rules and (4) The History and Future of Election Law Generally. Enjoy an enlightening discussion with our esteemed interdisciplinary panelists as they explore how our nation’s democratic procedures arrived at the point where they are today and where they conceivably might be heading in the future.
