Voting Realism, Gilda R. Daniels
Voting Realism, Gilda R. Daniels
Kentucky Law Journal
Since Shelby County v. Holder, the country has grown accustomed to life without the fl! strength of the Voting Rights Act. Efforts to restore Section 4 have been met with calls to ignore race conscious remedies and employ race neutral remedies for modem day voting rights violations. In this new normal, the country should adopt "voting realism" as the new approach to ensuring that law and reality work to address these new millennium methods of voter discrimination.

Judicial Review Of Direct Democracy: A Reappraisal, Michael E. Solimine
Judicial Review Of Direct Democracy: A Reappraisal, Michael E. Solimine
Kentucky Law Journal
In his dissent in Arizona State Legislature v. Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission in 2015, Justice Clarence Thomas argued that the Supreme Court had been inconsistent in the rigor it employs when considering constitutional challenges to the products of direct democracy, i.e., referenda and initiatives. Some cases seemed to use stricter scrutiny, and others lesser scrutiny, as compared to challenges to ordinary legislation. Justice Thomas argued that the review of direct democracy should be the same as for ordinary legislation, a proposition with which this Article agrees. This Article challenges the position advanced by Professor Julian Eule over twenty-five years …
Arbitrating Ballot Battles?, Rebecca Green
Arbitrating Ballot Battles?, Rebecca Green
Kentucky Law Journal
This short article posits that arbitration is an under-explored mechanism for resolving post-election disputes. As Professor Edward Foley documents in Ballot Battles: The History of Disputed Elections in the United States, post-election disputes have brought state and federal government to a political precipice numerous times in our history. A comprehensive, transparent, and fair arbitration process could well save us from another.
Who's Afraid Of The Hated Political Gerrymander?, Luis Fuentes-Rohwer
Who's Afraid Of The Hated Political Gerrymander?, Luis Fuentes-Rohwer
Kentucky Law Journal
The political gerrymander has few friends among scholars and commentators. Even a majority on the Supreme Court agreed that the practice violates constitutional and democratic norms. Andyet, this is one of the few issues that the US. Supreme Court refuses to regulate. The justices mask their refusal to regulate this area on a professedi nability to divinej uaicially-manageables tandards. In turn, scholars offer new standards for the justices to consider. This is not only a mistake but also misguided. The history of the political question doctrine makes clear that the discovery of manageable standards has never controlled the Court's prior …

Campaign Finance And The Ecology Of Democratic Speech, Michael Kent Curtis, Eugene D. Mazo
Kentucky Law Journal
Biologists have contributed to our understanding of the world's ecosystems, explaining how the natural world is populated by different species, which are able to thrive and blossom because of the existence of other species in the rightproportion. In similar fashion, the authors of this article believe that the political world has an ecosystem. It is an ecosystem where free speech may thrive or wither, and its fate rests on the delicate balance of political influence between citizens and corporations. This balance is disturbed when concentrations of wealth funnel into the democratic process through campaign spending. The Supreme Court, through its …
