Ninth Circuit Upholds Alaska Campaign Finance Rules

You can find the opinion in Alaska Right to Life v. Miles here. The ruling is significant in that it shows that states that model their own campaign finance laws after BCRA (in this case BCRA's electioneering communications provisions) have a good chance of having them upheld by the lower courts. Thanks to a number of readers for passing along a link to the case.
