[EL] will today's decisoin revive the EAC?

[Rick Hasen]

I don't see that Richard.  That would just delay things in the Arizona 
case.  Now Arizona can go to court and demand that the EAC act.  When it 
can't because of the lack of a quorum to act, the court will simply 
order EAC employees to accommodate Arizona on the federal form.

More broadly, the Republicans I've spoken who oppose the EAC see it as a 
failed agency that does the bidding of Democrats.  So why revive it for 
a single case?
