The 2016 Supplement to the fifth edition of Election Law: Cases and Materials is up to date through the end of the Supreme Court’s October 2015 term. It includes excerpts of the Supreme Court’s decisions in McCutcheon v. FEC and other post-Citizens United campaign finance cases, as well as Shelby County v. Holder, which struck down a key provision of the Voting Rights Act.
This year’s supplement covers recent redistricting cases from Alabama, Arizona, Texas, and Virginia, including Evenwel v. Abbott, the latest word on the meaning of one person, one vote. The supplement also considers new developments in voting rights, including ongoing lawsuits over voter identification, early voting, and voter registration, as well as litigation over citizenship requirements under the Elections Clause following the Supreme Court’s opinion in Arizona v. Inter Tribal Council. Finally the supplement covers the Court’s decision in Susan B. Anthony List v. Driehaus regarding false campaign speech.
