Breaking: Federal Court Strikes Down Ohio False Campaign Speech
Statute: Analysis <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=65323>
Posted onSeptember 11, 2014 2:09 pm
<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=65323>byRick Hasen
<http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>
On remand from the Supreme Court, a federal district court has decided
the /Susan B. Anthony List v. Driehaus case/
<http://www.sba-list.org/sites/default/files/content/shared/doc_139_order_granting_permanent_injunction_0.pdf>,
granting a preliminary injunction and summary judgment to the
challengers of the law.
The result in this case is not that much of a surprise and is in line
with a recent 8th Circuit decision, the281 Care Committee v. Arneson c
<http://electionlawblog.org/wp-content/uploads/281care.pdf>ase, about
which Iblogged. <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=64874> Today's case cites
the 8th Circuit case.
The trial court decision relies almost exclusively on the Supreme
Court's opinion in the /U.S. v. Alvarez/case, which struck down the
"Stolen Valor Act" on First Amendment grounds. That law made it a crime
to lie about having won the Congressional Medal of Honor.
In/A Constitutional Right to Lie in Campaigns and Elections?/
<http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2151618>, I wrote
specifically about the question of the relevance of /Alvarez /to the
false campaign speech law in Ohio and elsewhere. There was no majority
opinion in /Alvarez/, and there is some question as to whether Justices
Breyer and Kagan, who concurred separately, might come out differently
on the question of the law's constitutionality. Justice Breyer
specifically mentioned the difficult balancing question which comes up
with laws involving false campaign speech: on the one hand there is the
harm to the public from false statements; on the other hand there is a
great risk when government regulates political speech. I was very
surprised to see the judge in today's opinion barely make mention of the
separate Breyer opinion, or quote or analyze that language in the opinion.
In the end, this opinion might be affirmed by the 6th Circuit (despite
earlier cases which upheld portions of Ohio's law in the past). But I
think a more subtle analysis of the issues presented here would have
been in order.

The "Reverse Torricelli" in #KSSEN <http://electionlawblog.org/?p=65319>
Posted onSeptember 11, 2014 1:59 pm

<http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>
Taniel notes <https://twitter.com/Taniel/status/510167676396662784>that
also at issue in the #KSSEN race is a provision which requires the party
to appoint a replacement if Taylor is successfully removed from the
ballot. I expect Democrats to argue that there's no time for a
replacement to be appointed, given the imminent need to print ballots.
There is an interesting contrast here with the Torricelli case in NJ.
There, Democrats went to the NJ Supreme Court and argued for the right
to replace Sen. Robert Torricelli as the Democratic nominee for Senate
on the ballot with former Senator Frank Lautenberg. Torricelli was
mired in an ethics scandal and decided to withdraw. The NJ Supreme
Court, in a controversial decision (because the statutory time for
withdrawal and replacement arguably passed---more on that controversy
inmy Democracy Canon piece
<http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1344476>) allowed
the replacement. The NJ Supreme Court was condemned by Republicans (and
some others) as being biased toward the Democrats.
In this case, Democrats want a Reverse Torricelli. They want to be able
to remove a candidate from the ballot but NOT replace him. The idea is
that they don't want anti-Roberts voters to split their votes between
the independent likely to caucus with the Democrats and someone listed
as a Democrat on the ballot. (Someone at Daily Kos cheekily suggested
finding a "Pat Roberts" to be the Democrats stand-in candidate.)
I expect Republicans will howl if the KS Supreme Court not only orders
Taylor off the ballot (on grounds his letter complied with the statute
by saying he was withdrawing "pursuant to" the relevant section of the
ballot) but says that Democrats don't have to replace him on the ballot.
Stay tuned.

"State Judges and the Right to Vote"
<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=65315>
Posted onSeptember 11, 2014 1:28 pm
<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=65315>byRick Hasen
<http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>
Josh Douglas has postedthis draf
<http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2495078>t on SSRN.
Here is the abstract:
State courts are paramount in defining the constitutional right to
vote. This is in part because the right to vote is, in many ways, a
state-based right protected under state constitutions. Yet our focus
on state courts and on how state judges interpret the right to vote
is sorely lacking. This article remedies that deficiency. It
examines numerous state court cases involving voter ID, felon
disenfranchisement, and the voting process, demonstrating that state
courts vary in whether they rule broadly or narrowly toward voting
rights. When state courts issue rulings broadly defining the
constitutional right to vote, they best protect the most fundamental
right in our democracy. On the other hand, state decisions that
constrain voting to a narrower scope do harm to that ideal. Further,
a preliminary analysis shows that liberal judges, as well as those
who earn their seats through merit selection, are more likely to
define the right to vote robustly as compared to their conservative
and elected counterparts. Given that state judges impact our
election system in significant ways through broad or narrow rulings
on voting rights, we should advocate in favor of state courts and
state judges who will broadly construe and protect the state-based
constitutional right to vote.

No Factfinding Necessary in #KSSEN Dispute?
<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=65309>

<http://electionlawblog.org/?author=3>
Via
TPM<http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/kansas-supreme-court-order-taylor-vs-kobach>comes
news that the Kansas Supreme Court has agreed to hear the question
whether to remove Chad Taylor's name from the ballot (a move that could
help coalesce support around independent Greg Orman and against
Republican incumbent Senator Pat Roberts). But there was something
unusual about theKansas Supreme Court's order
<http://www.scribd.com/doc/239463596/Kansas-Supreme-Court-Order-Taylor-v-Kobach>related
to what happened in the elections office.
In Taylor's filing
<http://www.kansas.com/news/politics-government/election/article2044679.ece/binary/Chad%20Taylor%20memorandum%20in%20support%20of%20petition.pdf>,
he claimed that he was given assurances by election officials that his
letter was sufficient to withdraw from the race, even though it did not
mention the magic words of being "incapable" of serving in the Senate as
listed in the withdrawal statute.
In Kobach's responsive pleading
<http://www.scribd.com/doc/239353264/Kobach-Response-Taylor-Lawsuit>,
Kobach argued (among other things) that the Kansas Supreme Court should
not take original jurisdiction over this case because there was a
disputed finding of fact: Kobach has said that election officials deny
telling Taylor his letter was sufficient for withdrawal. Generally trial
courts do factfinding and appellate courts like the Kansas Supreme Court
are not in a position to do factfinding.
In today's Kansas Supreme Court order, the court specifically addressed
the point as follows:
ksc <http://electionlawblog.org/wp-content/uploads/ksc.png>
It is hard to know what to make of this. Is the court saying that it is
going to rule against Taylor on the question whether the government is
estopped from claiming he can't withdraw from the race, and therefore
the evidence in Taylor's affidavit is irrelevant? Or is the court going
to take Taylor's representations on face value, even though there may be
contrary evidence? The former would seem more likely but I would have
expected the court to want briefing on the estoppel question before
making such a determination.
Whatever the court decides, this is a very interesting development.
