On December 29, the Tenth Circuit denied a request for rehearing that had been filed by Kansas and Arizona, in Kobach v U.S. Election Assistance Commission. Those two states had lost earlier this month, and had asked the court for rehearing, but it was denied. Thanks to Rick Hasen for the news.

Regarding the Green Party of California’s State Assembly Meeting in Monterey, January 24-25 2015:
I cannot go to support such an event which is geared against unity of the all, headed up by the arrogant and unaccountable, who have only responded to the Environmentalist Party of Monterey County’s (est. in 1993 and ran against Clint in 1986) calls for cooperation and unity with roadblocks since 1995.
The Environmentalist Party started in Monterey County California USA!
We coordinated our first of many US Presidential unity ticket teams between Randy Toler [Green], Mike Bogatirev [Environmentalist] and Ralph Nader [Independent] in 1995/96, which the California Green Party has reliably fumbled year after year.
The most recent of course was Roseanne Barr’s [Green Tea] campaign in which we campaigned for unity as her VP in Missouri and won that primary with 52.7%. But the Monterey and California Green Party wouldn’t ever accept the outreached hand because of the lack of democracy and humility within their corrupt organization.
Those same divisively arrogant people, led by spokesperson Mike Feinstein and his failed arrogant and dictatorial policies, whose display was demonstrated by his own 6% showing in his campaign for Santa Monica City Council in 2014, has been destroying unity in the USA for the past 19 years.
We had Republicans, Democratics and other third party and independent leaders in Los Angeles ready to join his campaign but he wouldn’t even return a phone call and simply deleted our emails because he simply cannot conceive teamwork across partisan lines.
After Mike Feinstein’s California Green Party defeated my campaign with NOTA in 1994, he then supported the wrong mathematical system by helping to implement IRV in SF, Oakland.
His opposition to unity again demonstrated when we finally get a small step for voting reform through Top Two, a system which has nurtured team spirit but where his tyrannical and blatant statements against our allies, the Top Two proponents, was continually on public display. Top Two has served us well to expose the mean-spirited people who can’t appreciate a microscopic mathematical, unity-building improvement in voting reform.
Other Green Parties too, in parts of the USA including Wisconsin and now soon Maine, are promoting and implementing the incorrect math system which has established a power base for the Democrats instead of allowing regular people, third parties and normally disenfranchised people such as women and ethnic minority groups to gain better and more exact representation. Now he chooses to continue the failed destructive behavior at this crucial time when the 2016 campaigns are in the embryonic stage and us 52 candidates for president are trying to invite the California Green Party to be a part of that unity project in 2016:
