[EL] State Constitutional Right to Vote Question

I've been doing a fair amount of research into how state constitutions grant
the right to vote. I had a query about cases where state courts struck down
a law or practice based on these provisions. I am aware of the New Jersey
case brought this year seeking election day registration based on voting
rights language in the state constitution, and a couple cases from Michigan
where the state supreme court relied on state constitutional provisions on
the right vote in rulings, but I am curious to know if anyone knows of other
state court cases connected to state constitutional provisions on the right
to vote.

I'm happy to take any comments off-list and share them with anyone who is
interested.
