[EL] 2015 SEALS Panel on Election Law

[Josh Douglas]

Just a reminder to let me know by 5:00 today if you'd like to be included
in the SEALS proposal.  We'd be particularly interested in including women,
minorities, people with diverse ideological viewpoints, people from
different schools, newcomers to the field, etc.  And SEALS is a great
conference!  Thanks!
