“Vote Suppressors Unleashed: A district judge might be handing Donald Trump a chance to supercharge voter suppression.”<http://electionlawblog.org/?p=96135>

I have written this piece<http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/jurisprudence/2017/11/donald_trump_will_supercharge_voter_suppression_if_the_rnc_consent_decree.html> at Slate.  It begins:
This could be a very bad week for voting rights in the United States.
On Friday, a federal consent decree to stop potential voter suppression by the Republican National Committee—in place since 1982—is set to expire unless further extended by a federal district court in New Jersey. What happens next, with Donald Trump in charge of the Republican Party, will likely not be pretty.
