<x-flowed>I think by most accounts the conference call on yesterday's campaign finance decision was a success.  Therefore, I have organized another call for tomorrow on the Texas gerrymandering case (assuming it comes out).  I will send an email tomorrow with a list of the professors and lawyers speaking on the call.  The call will take place at 3:00 PM eastern time, and again, we will have room for 80 people to listen in.

The dial in number will be

1-712-580-1800

The participant code will be
070370

Unfortunately, this service does not allow us to tape the conference call and place it on the web.  In the future, perhaps we can move to a different service that both will allow listeners to pay for their own call and allow us to tape the call and place it on the web.

For those interested in what was said on yesterday's discussion on the campaign finance decision I would point them to the following links where some (but not all) of the participants have posted their thoughts:
