Republicans File Opening Brief in 5th Circuit Tom DeLay Ballot Case

You can find it here. On page 19 is a sentence that may come back to haunt some Republicans: “[Vote] Dilution occurs when, as in Bush v. Gore, 531 U.S. 98, 104-110 (2000), the ballots are not counted using the same standards, or when, for example, at-large election districts are used to reduce the voting power of minorities.” Under the expedited schedule announced by the court, briefing will be complete and oral argument possible by July 31.
