Money In Politics: Campaign Finance And Its Influence Over The Political Process And Public Policy, 52 Uic J. Marshall L. Rev. 185 (2018), Conrad Foreman
UIC Law Review
Money in politics has risen to the forefront of the public political consciousness in the decade since Citizens United v. FEC. At the root of the issue are deeply flawed Supreme Court rulings on the constitutional protection afforded to political spending and the definition of regulable "corruption," which have exacerbated issues in the American campaign finance system and effectively legalized political bribery. The purpose of this comment is to highlight the impact of campaign finance on public policy and ultimately propose that we, the American people, must amend our Constitution to restore a representative democracy.

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
A lot of things have changed since the early memories of going into the voting booth, which at that time was the old mechanical machines, and pulled those levers down. It was taught that you have to vote because each vote was going to make a difference, each vote was going to be recorded and tallied. The voting which was done on Election Day, the way one voted was going to affect our democracy. Of course during that time there were also a lot of other things happening that ran counter to this ideal, stories including police intimidation especially in …
"Electronic Voting Rights And The Dmca: Another Blast From The Digital Pirates Or A Final Wake Up Call For Reform?", 23 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 533 (2005), Doris E. Long
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
Electronic voting machines are the new version of pirated music. Like digital music, electronic voting was designed to make voting rights easily available to the masses. However, technology has once again demonstrated how easy it is to circumvent a good idea through better “hacker” technology. In reality, any electronic voting software can be hacked no matter how good the encryption technology protecting it. The issue is not creating a fool-proof anti-circumvention system – an impossible task – but creating the necessary digital safeguards to make circumvention difficult, to make security breaches more readily detectable, and to provide back-up systems to …

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
In general Election Day of 2004 proceeded surprisingly smoothly and although some problems were reported, by and large they were best characterized as “no big and lots of littles.” In the end, the margins of victory in most races during the 2004 election exceeded the margin of litigation, meaning the trouble that arose in many states would most likely not have changed the outcome. In the immediate aftermath of Election Day, however, a closer look at experiences around the country revealed widespread problems that, while immaterial to the outcome of the election, nonetheless indicate that much remains to be done …
