No Election Law Decision from U.S. Supreme Court
June 9th, 2008On June 9, the U.S. Supreme Court released three full opinions, but it did not release the only pending election law decision, Davis v Federal Election Commission, no. 07-320. The Court will release that decision on June 12, June 16, June 23, or June 30. The issue is the part of the McCain-Feingold law that relaxes contribution limits to federal candidates who face an opponent who donates more than $650,000 to his or her own campaign.
Another election law case has been accepted by the U.S. Supreme Court, a redistricting case from North Carolina. However, that case will not even be argued until October 14, 2008. It is Bartlett v Strickland, 07-689.
