[EL] AALS Section on Election Law Call for Papers

[Josh Douglas]

Hi everyone,

Just a friendly reminder that the AALS Section on Election Law is seeking
abstracts or draft papers for inclusion in the panel at the AALS meeting in
January.  The deadline is next week, although if you plan to submit but
can't have it by next week let me know and we might be able to push the
deadline a little.

Selected papers will be published in the Election Law Journal (after peer
review).  You need not submit a full paper now -- an abstract will do -- so
long as you will have the paper done by the spring.  The full details are
below.

Thanks,

Josh
