How hard would it have been to have released this live? How would that 
have undermined the legitimacy of the Supreme Court?

The Guardian reports 
<http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/oct/07/montana-north-cheyenne-reservation-voting-rights>, 
with the subhead: "The only way to register to vote for reservation 
residents is to make a 157-mile round trip to nearest county seat -- a 
trip most can't afford. But one man is fighting to change this in 
federal court."

    "In N.C. skirmish in national voting-rights wars, student once
    thrown off ballot wins race" <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=55910>

    Being thrown off the ballot was the best thing that ever happened to
    Montravias King. The national coverage that rained down on the
    Elizabeth City State University student when a local elections board
    in North Carolina rejected his initial City Council bid surely
    helped him break out from the field of candidates. He got the chance
    to plead his case, and his views, before millions, reaching many
    more people than a meager campaign budget could ever allow. This
    week, according to preliminary results, the university senior was
    the top vote-getter and will get to represent the ward where his
    school is located.
