You will find here
a database of election law teachers. If you submitted information to
me, please check the database to make sure your information was
accurately recorded. After I give time for some corrections, I'll post
a revised version, and then link to it on the side of the blog. I'll
try to keep this updated regularly. Thanks to all who contributed
information.
Stateline.org offers this
report (link via Politicalwire.com).
Joe Conason offers this
Salon.com
column, with the following subhead: "Right-wing groups -- and
Bush-Cheney '04 -- may have violated federal campaign law to help get
Ralph Nader on the ballot in Oregon." The allegation is that
conservative 501(c)(4)s, at the urging of Bush-Cheney '04, have been
making phone calls to get Republicans to sign on to get Nader on the
ballot in Oregon.
Henry Flores reviews my book, The Supreme Court and Election Law, at this link for the Law and Politics Book Review.
I won't comment on the merit of the review, other than to note that it incorrectly states that in chapter 5 of the book I criticize "Professor Paula [sic] Karlan" for her structuralist views. In that chapter, I do note that Pam Karlan has characterized Shaw v. Reno and Bush v. Gore as cases where the Supreme Court focused more on the structure and function of the political process than on traditional notions of individual or group equality. But Pam hardly endorses this development. (Pam was also incorrectly attacked as a structuralist by Larry Tribe in his Harvard Law Review article on Bush v. Gore.) Most of my criticism in Chapter 5 is of the structuralist work of Pam's casebook co-authors, Sam Issacharoff and Rick Pildes.-- Rick Hasen Professor of Law and William M.
