Election Law Journal 8:2 Now Available; Preview of ELJ 8:3

You can find the Table of contents for ELJ 8:2 here and reprinted below. Look for ELJ 8:3 in July, featuring Michael Franz on FEC enforcement, Tamara Small on campaign finance regulation in the Internet era in Canada, and our third annual book review issue, featuring reviews by Richard Briffault, Bruce Cain, Richard Engstrom, Stephen Huefner, Michael MacDonald, Lorraine Minnite, Susan Clark Muntean, Ray Martinez III, Dan Schnur, Charles Stewart, Dan Tokaji, and Kieran Williams.
The “Party Line” editorial by Dan Lowenstein and me at the beginning of issue 8:2 concludes as follows: “Finally, on a personal note, we express our gratitude to a friend who has recently left the journal. For several years we as editors and you as readers have benefited greatly from the service to the Election Law Journal of Sam Hirsch, who has been our Associate Editor. Sam took charge of the ‘back of the book,’ bringing order to what we believe has become a useful part of ELJ. He has also been a source of invaluable advice on a wide range of matters. Recently he was named Deputy Associate Attorney General at the United States Department of Justice. ELJ’s loss will be the Justice Department’s gain. We know we speak for all of our readers in congratulating Sam and wishing him well.”
