[EL] Future Supreme Court cases

The (generally) liberal trend the Court has taken this term has made me
wonder about the future.  Assuming that Hillary Clinton is elected
president (seems pretty likely) and has a Senate willing to approve her
Court picks (also more likely than not), she should be able to name at
least two new justices in her first two years: one to replace Scalia, and
one to replace Ginsburg (assuming she retires).  If she does, the Court
will have at least a 5-4 liberal majority, and maybe a 6-3 one.

Assuming no other changes to the Court, what election-related cases would
you expect the justices to hear in the late 2010s?  What would be the ideal
results thereof for liberals?
