Noted Election Law Professor Suggests that Supreme Court Should Re-Think Storer v Brown

Law Professor Rick Hasen of Loyola Law School (Los Angeles) writes the nation’s foremost election law blog, and is one of the two co-founders of the Election Law Journal. He wrote a guest column for findlaw.com on August 30, and suggested that the U.S. Supreme Court should rethink its 1974 election law decision, Storer v Brown. Hasen said that “sore loser” laws appear not to be needed. He cited the current Connecticut U.S. Senate race to show that “sore loser” laws are not really essential.
