Abstract

In disputed presidential and other elections, what is the appropriate relationship between state law and state institutions versus national law and national institutions? What does the constitutional law of elections, prior to the 2000 presidential election, tell us about how that relationship has long been legally understood? This broader jurisprudence of elections offers a more general, external stance from which disputes over this relationship surrounding Bush v. Gore can be helpfully assessed.
