The district court's new order is here.
Dan Tokaji has the details here.
Phil Kiesling and Sam Reed offer this New York Times oped, which begins: "With voters and the press fixated on the fiercest presidential race in decades, scant attention has been paid to a political revolution erupting on the West Coast - one that Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger of California gave his support to this week. On Nov. 2, voters in Washington State and California are expected to approve initiatives to abolish the political party primary as we know it. Voters in Oregon may well pass a similar measure by 2006."
The New York Times offers this
report.
The Supreme Court has rescheduled Locke v. Farrakhan for conference
on Nov. 5, along with a New York case on the same issue, Muntaqim v.
Coombe, 04-175. I am predicting a cert. grant in Locke or both cases.
