Here is theorder list 
<http://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/051815zor_a86c.pdf>:

    14-872 O’KEEFE, ERIC, ET AL. V. CHISHOLM, JOHN, ET AL. The motion of
    Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty for leave to file a brief as
    amicus curiae is granted. The motion of The Maciver Institute for
    Public Policy for leave to file a brief as amicus curiae is granted.
    The motion of Cause of Action for leave to file a brief as amicus
    curiae is granted. The motion of Center for Competitive Politics, et
    al. for leave to file a brief as amici curiae is granted. The motion
    of The Cato Institute for leave to file a brief as amicus curiae is
    granted. The motion of respondents John T. Chisholm, David Robles,
    and Bruce J. Landgraf for leave to file a brief in opposition under
    seal with redacted copies for the public record is granted. The
    petition for a writ of certiorari is denied.

This is not a big surprise, as this really was not a good case for 
looking at the campaign finance/coordination issues presented, 
especially because much of it could be mooted by an expected decision of 
the Wisconsin Supreme Court this summer which, along party lines, could 
well put the case to rest.

(No order today in Evenwel v. Abbott, the one person, one vote 
non-citizen voting case, but I’m expecting an eventual cert. denial.)
