_“Buying Your Vote? Citizens United, Super PACs, and the Future of
Campaign Finance in America”_ (http://electionlawblog.org/?p=41127)
Posted on _October 4, 2012 12:55 pm_ (http://electionlawblog.org/?p=41127)

_This event _ (http://www.law.uconn.edu/content/buying-your-vote) will
take place October 19 at University of Connecticut’s law school.
How many ways is this biased and unworthy of an "academic" pretense. Let
me count the ways:
(1) Title. We might as well start from the top. Since CU had nothing to
do with contributions, this title takes the most extreme view of CU
possible, as potentially allowing buying votes by independent expenditures. It is
hardly lessened by the gratuitous "?".
(2.) The people I recognize who are speaking are hostile to CU, except
Lyle who should be a pretty straight shooter. I am hopeful about the Conn
ACLU speaker though. They bought a recent First Amendment campaign finance
case which they won in the 2nd Cir. I would be nice if there were one
defender, even refreshing.
This is so typical. Jim Bopp
