Abstract

I have been asked to take a look at the campaign finance case and the Texas gerrymandering case. They are both part of what I call the “law of democracy.” Part of the disarray we see today regarding the rules governing democracy is exemplified by the fact that these two cases are thought to be so different that they are on different panels. While the campaign finance case is considered a First Amendment case, the Texas gerrymandering case is considered a Voting Rights Act or Fourteenth Amendment case. They are looked at through different lenses in different ways.
