Look Inside


With the addition of a new co-author, Daniel P. Tokaji, the new edition covers developments through the Supreme Court’s current term ending in June 2008. The authors have added a new chapter on election administration, which includes coverage of controversies over voter identification laws, including the Crawford case currently before the Supreme Court. The new edition also covers the recent renewal of expiring provisions of the Voting Rights Act and constitutional challenges to that renewal.

Like its predecessor, Election Law, Fourth Edition covers the right to vote and voter turnout, legislative districting, the Voting Rights Act and the racial gerrymandering cause of action, ballot propositions, constitutional rights and obligations of political parties, bribery, regulation of campaign speech, campaign finance, and term limits.
