    Ramesh Ponnuru on Fact Checking <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=41488>

Posted on October 11, 2012 1:24 pm <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=41488> 
by Rick Hasen <http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>

Interesting piece 
<http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/329964/he-lies-they-commanded-ramesh-ponnuru> 
(via Jonathan Adler 
<http://www.volokh.com/2012/10/11/the-fact-checkers-conceit/>).

I've been reading a lot of this stuff since I've been working on my 
campaign lies and the First Amendment paper 
<http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2151618>, and the 
debate over fact checking is fascinating!

    Is True the Vote More Bark Than Bite?
    <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=41482>

Posted on October 11, 2012 1:10 pm <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=41482> 
by Rick Hasen <http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>

This piece is very important 
<http://prospect.org/article/whats-truth-about-true-vote>and strikes me 
as exactly right.  In fact, I was toying with writing a piece called 
"Who's Afraid of True the Vote?" but this beat me to it.

    "Ohio elections chief Jon Husted restricts methods to notify voters
    of absentee ballot errors" <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=41477>

Posted on October 11, 2012 1:00 pm <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=41477>

Jon Husted 
<http://www.cleveland.com/open/index.ssf/2012/10/ohio_elections_chief_restricts.html> 
is starting 
<http://www.plunderbund.com/2012/10/08/jon-husted-forbids-boards-of-election-from-callingemailing-voters-about-absentee-ballot-mistakes/> 
to look a lot more like Ken Blackwell and Jennifer Brunner than I had 
hoped (h/t Maddowblog 
<http://maddowblog.msnbc.com/_news/2012/10/11/14372246-ohios-husted-loses-another-round-still-working-to-make-voting-harder?lite>).

And he's got more decisions to make as counties start deadlocking 
<http://www.toledoblade.com/Politics/2012/10/10/Husted-to-decide-last-3-days-early-vote-hours-in-Lucas-County.html> 
on early voting for those last three days, as ordered by the Sixth Circuit.

How about some uniformity there too?
