I'm posting about half of my blog comments on the BCRA also to the list.  You can go to the blog if you want to see the rest. In other election law news (yes, there is some other news), there is fallout from the Spargo decision. According to Steven Sholk, the New York courts are saying they are not bound by the federal district court decision striking down provisions restricting the conduct of judicial candidates. See this law.com article. Ed Feigenbaum reports that the Kentucky Supreme Court heard oral argument over their Kentucky governor ballot issues. See the reports here and here.
