The 9th circuit opinion upholding extra public funding for candidates with privately-funded opponents with lots of contributions is McComish v Bennett.  The 9th reported its decision at 605 F 3d 720, decided May 21,2010.

On June 23 the 9th circuit amended its opinion, after it had been published.  So the amended 9th circuit opinion is 611 F 3d 510.

I can't find any difference between the text of the two reported decisions.  Can anyone tell me what changed?  Thank you.
