Very Excited to Announce My New Book Project, “Unbent Arc: The Rise and Decline of American Democracy 1964-2024)” electionlawblog.org?p=152307 I’m very excited to be working on this major project, bringing together my many strands of research on democracy and election law.

Ouch SCOTUS

They could have done something like this in the Trump immunity case and given a chance for the special counsel to take Trump's federal election subversion charges to trial. Expediting cases is a choice

It's even more infuriating when it is done with executive orders, such as claiming that "Trump issues second executive order on elections, giving US Postal Service unprecedented control over mail voting"---they need to put PURPORTEDLY before "giving" or something like that

“A federal judge dismisses another DOJ lawsuit seeking voter data, this time in Massachusetts” electionlawblog.org?p=155382

Well they better figure it out definitively before the midterms. This is not tenable in the current political atmosphere.

The actuarial table as the only real constraint on unbridled executive power
