    "With contribution limits off, Emanuel reels in more cash"

Chicago Tribune 
<http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-rahm-emanuel-fundraising-caps-20141127-story.html>:

    Mayor Rahm Emanuel has received $400,000 in political donations that
    he was able to keep only because the state's campaign contribution
    limits were eliminated through the actions of an obscure candidate
    who threatened to run, but didn't.

    The contribution limits were lifted for everyone in the Chicago
    mayoral race last month after frequent local candidate William J.
    Kelly filed paperwork in October showing he gave his own campaign
    $100,000. Under state law, once a candidate in a local race
    contributes $100,000 to his or her own campaign within one year of
    an election, the state contribution caps no longer apply.

    Supreme Court to STFU. I engaged in a myriad of snarky exchanges
    with oh-so-brilliant law professors. I expressed my virulent

    What the hell more can I do to get thrown off this list of bull shit?

AP 
<http://www.azcentral.com/story/news/arizona/politics/2014/11/27/ron-barber-martha-mcsally-congress-recount/19586107/>:

    The 133 ballots at the heart of a federal lawsuit in southern
    Arizona over election results in the hotly contested 2nd
    Congressional District will not be counted after all.

    U.S. District Judge Cindy Jorgenson denied a request Thursday by
    U.S. Rep. Ron Barber and three voters to halt the official election
    results certification until the ballots of 133 lawful voters are
    counted. The official statewide election canvass is scheduled for
    Monday morning.

WaPo:

    The innocuous-sounding group was among a wave of organizations
    funded by secret donors that set a new high-water mark in the 2014
    midterms, spending more than $170 million on congressional races,
    according to the nonpartisanCenter for Responsive Politics
    <http://www.opensecrets.org/outsidespending/summ.php?cycle=2014&chrt=V&disp=O&type=U>.

    And as the Renfroe case suggests, it wasn't just high-profile,
    expensive Senate contests: Secret-money groups had a major presence
    in more than two dozen lesser-known House races as well, according
    to a Washington Post analysis of campaign finance data compiled by CRP.

    In 13 House races, non-disclosing groups spent at least $1 million
    on political ads and voter outreach. In another 17 House campaigns,
    they made up more than half of the spending by independent groups

    "DC Federal Judge Strikes a Blow Against Dark Money --- But Will It
    Hold?" <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=68694>

Daniel Weiner 
<http://www.brennancenter.org/blog/judge-strikes-blow-against-dark-money>:

    Proponents of disclosure have every right to celebrate, but the
    future of this issue is far from clear. Judge Jackson's order will
    almost certainly be appealed again to the D.C. Circuit, and from
    there could head to the Supreme Court. Sooner or later, the Court
    will have to confront the gap between the picture of full disclosure
    it has painted in its rhetoric and the dark money reality its
    decisions have actually fostered. Nobody, maybe not even the
    justices, knows what will happen then.

    In the meantime, the practical impact of yesterday's decision will
    be limited. Through a quirk in the law, ECs are now subject
    to/more/disclosure than communications containing an explicit call
    to vote for or against a candidate (which have their own loophole).
    Political spenders need only tweak the language of their ads to
    continue keeping their donors secret.  In fact,most have already
    done so <http://www.opensecrets.org/outsidespending/>. The use of
    ECs declined precipitously following Judge Jackson's 2012 ruling,
    and has never really rebounded. So little will change. Real,
    comprehensive reform will have to wait for another day.

    "Studies Back Up That Few Elections Are Swung by Voter ID Laws"
    <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=68692>

Posted onNovember 26, 2014 11:19 am 
<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=68692>byRick Hasen 
<http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>

Nate Cohn 
<http://www.nytimes.com/2014/11/27/upshot/what-studies-show-about-the-effect-of-voter-id-laws.html?_r=0&abt=0002&abg=0>for 
NYT's The UpShot:

    Last week, I wrote an article arguing thatvoter ID laws don't swing
    many elections
    <http://www.nytimes.com/2014/11/20/upshot/why-voter-id-laws-dont-swing-many-elections.html>.

    This week, the Brennan Center for Justice says I have it "wrong
    <https://twitter.com/BrennanCenter/status/537270030225145857>" on
    voter ID. Yet, oddly, it's hard to find a place we disagree.

More:

    In my original article, I wrote a paragraph that read: "Take Texas,
    a state with a particularly onerous voter ID law. If I register to
    vote as 'Nate' but my ID says 'Nathan,' I might be counted among the
    hundreds of thousands of registered voters without a photo ID. But
    I'll be fine at the polling station on Election Day with a name
    that's 'substantially similar' to the one on file." The Brennan
    Center interprets this paragraph to mean that I would not be counted
    in the Texas study as lacking ID.

    This was unclear. My point in invoking Texas was not to discuss Mr.
    Ansolabehere's matching procedures, but to note that even a state
    with a stringent ID law, like Texas, would accept a name that's
    "substantially similar" to the one on file. I was not disputing that
    there are states using these matching procedures, just trying to
    show the potential complications involving people who could be
    counted as without photo identification but could nevertheless vote
    in a state with a particularly strong voter ID law.

    This quibble aside, the Brennan article is consistent with my own
    about the small chances for swinging election outcomes. It considers
    the Texas study stands above its peers because of its rigorous and
    detailed matching procedures. But the Texas data is in line with my
    argument, and even if it weren't, my broader argument would stand:
    Voter ID laws do not swing many elections, because people without
    identification do not represent a large share of registered voters;
    they are particularly unlikely to vote; and a share of them will
    vote Republican.

Meredith McGehee 
<http://www.clcblog.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=583:fec-fcc-and-2016>:

    Broadcast stations made money hand-over-fist this year on political
    advertisements even though it was a non-presidential election year.
       Spending on TV ads in federal and gubernatorial races topped $1
    billion, according to the Wesleyan Media Project.

    One-quarter of that spending (about $250 million) came from groups
    that are supposedly independent of the candidates.  And $100 million
    of that spending came from "dark-money" groups that don't disclose
    their donors even though they are spending millions to affect the
    outcome of elections.  Of course, many of the ads aired by these
    non-candidate groups were negative, and many were run in barely
    masked coordination with a candidate.  For example, Kentucky Senator
    Mitch McConnell (R) and others put "B-Roll" on the Internet so that
    outside groups could copy parts of the footage and use it in their
    ads.  In North Carolina, the campaign manager of Senator-elect Thom
    Tillis (R)publicized a 1,000-word plan that detailed what kind of ad
    buys were needed to assist the Tillis' campaign.  Yet, somehow we
    are supposed to believe there was no coordination.

    In both law and public scrutiny, renewed attention is being given to
    the simple act of casting a ballot. At a time when the formal act of
    voting has been relaxed, and more than a third of Americans cast
    their ballots in another manner than voting at the polls on Election
    Day, there is a decided pushback. In some sense this is hardly
    novel; question of ballot integrity and ballot access have been a
    recurring issue in the U.S. from Reconstruction to the Civil Rights
    Era. In both of these previous eras, enfranchisement and
    disenfranchisement had a partisan edge, but were understood to be
    battles over the black franchise -- and properly so. Whether that
    remains the case is the subject of this Article, first presented as
    the Currie Lecture at Duke Law School.

    The inquiry begins with the partisan implications of turnout and
    focuses primarily on the partisan dimension of new efforts at ballot
    restriction. The main thesis is that while issues of the franchise
    correlate with race, as does the partisan divide between Democrats
    and Republicans, the new battles over ballot access do not readily
    lend themselves to a narrative that focuses primarily on racial
    exclusion. Rather they point to a deep vulnerability of American
    democracy in entrusting election administration and election
    eligibility to local partisan control.

Looking forward to reading this!
